First time catching a Hainan Airlines Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner! 🇨🇳✈️
------------------------------------------------------------‐------------------------------------------------------------
With Prestwick being a little quiet, headed over to Edinburgh during my Scotland trip to catch some aircraft I don’t usually see back home. Definitely worth the trip for this one! 🔥

Been hoping to see one of these at Prestwick for a while, so was pretty happy when REACH 5064 (RCH5064) showed up!

Even better with the rain making it look that bit more dramatic. 🌧️🔥 taken in Glasgow Prestwick Airport by @aviation_zone_

First time catching the Air China Cargo A330 at Prestwick 🇨🇳✈️
------------------------------------------------------------‐------------------------------------------------------------
Also my first time shooting at Prestwick in conditions like this 🌧️ Safe to say the rain was definitely making itself known, but it made for some pretty cool shots with all the spray on the runway!

Another look at the German tiffs 🇩🇪✈️
------------------------------------------------------------‐------------------------------------------------------------
Got these after seeing them over Ullswater, with a few shots over the water before they headed back through Kirkstone Pass and came around for another run. Some really unique views in this lot! 👀

VADER — Ullswater 🇩🇪✈️
------------------------------------------------------------‐---------------------------------------------------------
First time at Ullswater and my first time seeing German Typhoons here! 🇩🇪🔥
------------------------------------------------------------‐---------------------------------------------------------
10 Typhoons were deployed for Exercise Cobra Warrior, with four of them coming through Ullswater as VADER Flight.
------------------------------------------------------------‐---------------------------------------------------------
Two trips, eight passes in total — absolutely brilliant to witness! 😮‍💨📸

First time seeing the F-22 Raptor! 😮‍💨🦖
------------------------------------------------------------‐------------------------------------------------------------
These three were at RAF Fairford following their Middle East deployment during Operation Epic Fury, operating as
------------------------------------------------------------‐------------------------------------------------------------
TREND Flight on their movements back through the UK.
Would have preferred to get them airborne but Definitely a pretty cool first catch! 📸🔥

CV-22 Osprey circuits ✌️
------------------------------------------------------------‐------------------------------------------------------------
Nice to catch this one doing circuits again, similar to the sunset shot I posted previously 🌅
------------------------------------------------------------‐------------------------------------------------------------
Always a great sight seeing these flying around, and this one had a little extra character with someone giving the ✌️ from the side door 😂
------------------------------------------------------------‐------------------------------------------------------------
And you can’t forget the gun mounted at the back either 👀🔥
