Hi Rui,
Thanks for your massage but sorry fore the late reaction. Have been in Capetown for the last four days and read your message just yet.
The pictures on the 7th of September where indeed taken in the afternoon (landing 03R) from a spot which is a ten minutes walk from the Birchwood hotel. It's at the parking lot of Nikki Beach.
What I have to mention is that I went there alone (stupid I know) and didn't feel my self safe on that spot. I had a couple of locals asking for money and that sort of things so it's recommended to go there not alone!
When the aircrafts are landing on 21L you should go to spot 4 or 5 on the airfield guide.
Grtz Chris

Forum rules
This is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum. Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post. In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.). Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so. |
