Got a whole lot of crosswind here, need to correct with rudder Safely down on runway 20

Taxiing ahead to the next turn-off point Here it is Clearing the runway before LAMBDA gets here (and letting those other planes take off too)

Parked at EYVI again N56EJ is taking off already Meanwhile I'm shutting down for now

Back at the airport in the Eurocopter Colibri, with the clock set ahead by 10 hours Starting up to watch the incoming planes Taking off while still using night vision (even with non-real time the sun hasn't risen just yet)

Again, I need to stay close to the rooftops to keep visual on the ground There's one airliner waiting for its turn to take off Watching G4767 land at runway 20

Another shot of G4767's plane (must have been a long flight from Japan!) Circling around the city... ...before returning to the airport to watch the traffic

Someone is just taking off or landing, forgot which :) Typing while flying a helo can be a bit difficult, but I can't really use TeamSpeak at this hour (and the microphone causes kernel panics anyway...) Exploring the city at low altitude again
202.jpg 203.jpg 204.jpg
The streets are surprisingly busy at this hour... ...but now it looks like I've scared everyone away with the black helicopter :D That tank lorry driver obviously hasn't heard about keeping safe distances... not that I'm exactly flying by the book either :P

Some sunlight is already visible through the cloud cover Still staying close to the airport But what's this railroad doing on the ramp???
208.jpg 209.jpg 210.jpg
Heh, looks like an airliner is parked right on someone's front door too :D Caution, birds around the airport Hovering near the threshold and waiting for Spider to land...
