Larnaca spotting sep 2011
After suffering the wettest summer on record, I had a need for planes in the sun.
Searching the internet I found a very affordable ticket from Niederrhein to Larnaca with Ryanair.
(Ryanair call this airport Dusseldorf and it is actually the old RAF Lahrbruch)
Larnaca is not a very busy airport but it has visitors from middele east airlines that are still on my to do list.
Here is the catch from Friday afternoon sep 2nd
The guys that got me there in their office
2nd plane I saw coming in
Editted on a 10" netbook so please forgive imperfections in editting.

2nd afternoon on the beach. The sun is in the wrong place in the morning. You could drive around the whole airport
to shoot in the morning but there are limited movements in the morning so I did not bother to get a hire car.
What I am posting are not only the highlights but also a fair proportion of the movements. You get 20 to 30 planes
between 13.00 and 18.30.Including Cyprus Aw, Aegean, Olympic, Austrian, Aeroflot, Swiss, LH, Emirates and Etihad
Saturday sep 3rd
There were 3 Aerosvit flights this afternoon, the first 2 were the mostly white 737's, this one made up for that

I feel myself a little bit stupid because I was =censored= off to my girlfriend when she said that she was informing for an holiday to Cyprus.
Next time I agree it!
