LO331 WAW-CDG 2016.05.02

May, the month when the weather isn't too hot yet, but ain't too cold either. A great month for traveling around western Europe. This year the plan was for a quick visit in Paris, as a tourist, and even quicker visits in Prague and Amsterdam, as a spotter.

SP-LNB Embraer 195

The morning flight with LOT was the one I chose to get with to Paris. The weather that morning in Warsaw was gray. Cloudy with a slight breeze. At the check-in area there is no queue to the bag drop, so I quickly get rid of my bag over there and head over to the security control. The worst part of a journey from Warsaw... But well, one must get over the poor and rude treatment they get and move on, to the gate! Having a lot of time I catch up with some friends and when boarding is at it's end, board the plane. Today SP-LNB, seat 25D. The forecast for the flight is good, the sky in Paris is clear.
After almost two hours we finally begin our approach to Charles de Gaulle airport. Smooth touchdown and after a couple of minutes deboarding commences. The bags arrive rather quick, but as it is in Paris, not in the right order...
All in all, another very pleasant flight with LOT.

Someone here got priority for takeoff

Yet another day at work. This time the extraordinary aircraft was a Ukraine Air Force Antonov 30. Apart of that a photo of a soon-to-be-painted into the Small Planet livery A321 (ex Aeroflot) and a Helvetic Airways A319 accompanied by a E75 being pushed back.

Another day, another Dreamliner arriving. Yet this time it was a little different due to the unusual circumstance of the captains retirement. For that occasion he did get a water salute.

EPWA 2016.04.18 Volga Dnepr IL76 departure

After the night in Warsaw, RA-76511 (VDAs Il-76) departed together with its cargo. Unfortunately, again, a cargo aircraft choose the other runway it was supposed to... In addition, while waiting for the departure three other aircraft leaving Warsaw from runway 29.
