Never to be seen again...

An Air Australia A320 (VH-YQC) heading for Brisbane Airport back on the 31st of January this year. Taken on a gloomy day, that reflects what would happen to the airline just a few weeks later. Such a pity, not a bad livery on the aircraft.

F/A-18 Super Hornets Flyover ANZAC Day

A picture taken from King George Square in Brisbane this morning, as two RAAF F/A-18 Super Hornets fly over to commence the ANZAC day march through the streets of Brisbane. There were two flyovers, one at 10am, and one at 11am. The jets were flying below 500 feet, and it was quite an impressive fly by.

My first photo that I'm uploading, is one that has already had international exposure. It has appeared in a range of UK, and other international newspapers. It was taken on the 1st of February 2012, from my backyard here at Coopers Plains. It was a very lucky shot, and not something that happens all the time. The planes were about 1800 feet apart, with the 747 making its ILS approach to Brisbane Airport (BNE), and the Cessna doing a training flight at 1000 feet, having taken off from Archerfield Airport.

Hello and Welcome...

Thought I may as well create a blog, and share my interest of plane spotting and photography. I'll be posting pictures of planes, mostly ones that fly over my house in Coopers Plains in the southern suburbs of Brisbane. I hope you have a pleasant flight.
