Hi Attila.  It was awesome seeing and talking to you at the Infield area today!  :D

From 2:30-4:30pm, saw the following:

British Airways B767
Turkish A330
KLM B747
Air India B777
Etihad B777
Lufthansa A343
Air France A343
Aeromexico B737
Canjet B737 (blue livery)
TACA (Cubana, red tail)

A nice afternoon at the airport.  Freezing cold though!  :shock:

Sighted 6 White-tailed Deer afterwards (created a separate thread about this).

CC-144 Challenger - note the special paint job.  It's in town assisting with NORAD G8 preps.

Greetings to all :D

Just a heads up to those who are interrested, Muskoka is having a Airshow this summer on July 17-18, Mike (mkybear) and I will check it out this summer. It's the 70th Anniversary Battle of Norway and Battle of Britian.
Here's the link that Mike sent me.

I find it sort of stupid that the Waterloo Airshow is going up against high competition with Flyfest going on at the Warplane Museum less then an hour away on the same 2 days. Not too smart thinking.......

Flyfest isn't so much competition...the people who are running the Loo show already have the Snows along with some serious hardware lined up.

Waterloo will have a great show, and I look forward to attending it on the Sunday.

Great shots Attila!

Tonight while shooting a Chipping Sparrow which was in great light I had this WWII Harvard flyover. Attila, was this at the Toronto show?

Cody, thanks, glad you enjoy the photos.

That wasn't the Harvard here in Toronto this weekend - I believe it was participating at Southern Wisconsin's Air Fest, or it could have just been one of the many Harvard's out for a flight on this beautiful weekend.

Here's the one that was here at Downsview...
