Pictaero's Screeners' Choice - Monday June 2nd 2008

Published on 06-03-2008 by Curufinwe in Screeners' choices | Permanent link | 0 comment(s)

Yet another varied choice for this week!
Let's then start with airliners, which are not in great numbers!
So, here comes a CSA A320, an easyJet A319 in front of a stormy sky and a beautifully painted Gulf Air A330.
A320 - OK-MEI A319 - G-EJAR A330-200 - A9C-KF

Then, pictures taken at air shows ... lots of things: a F-18 along with a Black and White DC-3 or the "patrouille de France" with a Eurocopter Tiger ...
Alpha Jet E - F-TERN EC-665 HAP - 2002 VC-61K - F-AZCI
AD-4NA - F-AZDQ DC3 - F-AZTE F/A-18C - C15-43

I hope you liked this week's choice. So, I shall see you on next Monday for our weekly Screeners' Choice.

June 1st server maintenance - Report

Published on 06-03-2008 by Curufinwe in News | Permanent link | 0 comment(s)

Last week, we were informing you of a server maintenance for June 1st.

Everything went fine. The maintenance had to be underdone until the afternoon, because Internet providers were long in updating the website's address.

We now have a more powerful structure that will allow us to welcome more members easily. Updates were done to make navigation faster and more comfortable for you.

Our photographs' treatment engine was updated. it is now more sensitive to high quality pictures. However, for lower quality photographs, the result may not be as good as it used to be.
Don't worry, each picture goes through validating procedures and our screeners will give you advice if needed.

Once more, on behalf of all Pictaero's team, I would like to thank you all for your faithfulness.

Because of Air Shows, we have chosen only a few airliners this week, making our choice very diversified!
I shall try gather them by category, it might be difficult. I'd better let the photos speak for themselves!
A French Centrair glider, in flight, and a T-6 that looks like a "Zero" to start with:
C-101A - F-CHKT AT-6M0 Zero - F-AZRO

Two Aviojets crossing, a close-up on a French Mirage 2000N and a Dutch F-16 at the Orange air show, last week. Then, a French Air ForceAlpha Jet, with a special colour scheme for the millionth flight hour!
Alpha Jet E - F-TETJ C-101EB - E25-14
Mirage 2000N - 362 F-16AM - J-055

Let's finish with a few airliners or bizjets, the largest being a Regional Airlines ERJ-190.
ERJ-190LR - F-HBLC P-190 Avanti II - F-GZPE ATR-72-500 - F-WWEY

There you go; it is over now. See you on next Monday for our weekly Screeners' Choice.

As It was explained in a previous article on May 18th, we must perform a second technical maintenance on our web infrastructure.

Therefore, Pictaero will be inaccessible for most of Sunday morning; that is to say Sunday June 1st (CET - GMT+1).

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.

Thank you in advance for your understanding.

This week's choice is quite short, due to the fact that the team members have nearly all chosen the same photos!
And aside from a DR-400 (with which I shall start) and a Mirage 2000, there are only airliners!
Robin DR-400 - F-GCUU

Single-aisles now; for instance an old JAT - Yugoslav Airlines' _737_ or a superb SkyEurope 737-700!
737-300 - YU-ANV A319 - G-EZBI 737-700 - OM-NGC

Then, all alone is a Luzair TriStar on Paris - Charles de Gaulle apron!
L-1011 Tristar - CS-TMP

Finally are two military aircraft, one of which is a Mirage 2000B with great lighting effect!
Mirage 2000B - 512 C-135FR Stratotanker - 93-CL

That's about it for the week. See you on next Monday then for our weekly Screeners' Choice.
