smoochy Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Smoochy I think this is a common UPS cargo airbus . Judging by the angle the 2nd picture was taken, the entire brown coloured part in the back of the fuselage was hidden. planespotting5.jpg Well played. Indeed an airbus of a similar vintage to the UPS photo. Which model? Unfortunately, it is not UPS though it is in a stealthy livery. Second hint. Operator is currently operating in Asia but this aircraft is leased. (hence the half-assed livery) Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David48 Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) While you guys are guessing the cargo plane, I'm sitting under the flight path for Swampy. In Winter, the prevailing wind is from the north and they approach the airport over this Farm ... hence how this Thread came into existence. In Summer, however, the wind direction has been constantly from the south, meaning I no longer have constant access to the planes at a good altitude. HOWEVER ... Last week, the wind did change for a brief time, it blew from the North, the planes came over and have 10 new ones to spot ... planes I've not presented before. I've really enjoyed the new planes (from you guys) ... stuff I never get to see. When it gets a bit quieter on the thread, I'll present what I captured on a few hours last Sunday morning. BTW ... I'm sure we don't have all the answers to theblether's planes just yet? Post #1814 Edited September 8, 2013 by David48 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinglePot Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Yep. Dinky Toys and Meccano. Wonder how long it will take China to produce a reliable wide-bodied passenger plane.
