Two of my passions in one place !!

Before going to the airport, I looked some weather radars and saw a few storms cells.

When I arrived on the third floor of the airport parking, the sky was fabulous!

Some cells were on the south side of Yul, and another one was on north, going to east.

North side

The storm was heading east

Nice contrast, a blue sky and a plane race...

To bypass the storm located at the east of Montreal, some landings were made on Rwy 28

Royal Air Maroc

Another storm is coming directly to YUL... These next pictures speak for themselves...

With this bad weather above YUL, I was thinking that's a ground stop was called, when I eard a terrific "Roar" from Trent engine trying to keep flying this AC-864 to London.

Note the doors of landing gears still open, and this A330 already made a sharp 90° th the left.

I never saw a departure like that...

Bad landing !!

This sequence show how the MD-11 is a hard airplane to land... Maybe a little scary inside, but a great opportunity for the photographer !

Playing with condensation

Spotting session under drizzle and rain. I think that the resulat is quiet nice...

A little effect of "Archimedes screw"

A little tornado in front of the engine

And finally, an ellegant departure!
