When I saw the registration C-FYLD, I remembered having seen somewhere ... It was an Airbus 340 of Air Canada ...

Now, this one is flying for Iberia (EC-KSE)

2 new aircrafts to my collection!

Spotting under the snow...

Desipite of a bad light for pictures, I still wanted to enjoy the great temperature of the day (only -4°C, that's hot for this period :) By the way, there was also an unusual visitor...

It was the general tour of anti-freeze fluid ...

This B734 of Swift Air brought the Kings of LA. This was the same company used by McCain during the US presidential, but not the same plane. The aircraft that had been used by the Republican was N802TJ...

First spotting of '09 with a nice visitor!

It's with a beautiful sunny and freezing cold day that I started my 2009 season of spotting. With the advent OAI's DC-10, it took me no more to go brave the wind and blowing snow low ...
By the way, I also took some rented planes... The first is from TUIfly (Germany) for Canjet.

Windy spotting (gust @ 49 knots)

My great idea of the day was to walk 5 km on icy sidewalks and streets, dotted with huge puddle of water, all with gusts of wind near of 90km/h...

After a night's work, I decided to increase my lack of sleep, and enjoy a relatively calm morning, scattered with cirrus and sunny breaks...
