Flughafen Oulu part II

[Olli Vainio]

Hello all, again. :)

 

Some months ago I posted few shots to here from my home airport and with the overwhelmingly nice feedback I got from you guys, I decided that maybe I should now post few more shots. :)

 

Blue1 MD90 and airBaltic B737 being prepared for overnight stay.

 

Some Slovenian charter.

 

OH-HWM doing couple of passes of the tower.

 

Fast passes.

 

We have large expansion project going on here too..

 

The day after I shot those photos of OH-HWM, I had an opportunity to use it as photoplatform for photographing what I wanted. We ripped the door off and I was partly outside the helicopter while photographing stuff. This is what resulted.

 

General aviation apron and City of Oulu in the background.

 

Tower, apron and the terminal with few aircraft waiting to depart.

 

Finnair 'bus with some lonely spotter.

 

Climbing away.

 

Jetair J32 operating for Wingp xprs.

 

These birds will soon be gone.

 

The Runway.

 

That's all for now...maybe some more in a few months. :D

No Tampere Airshow for a while I think. The yearly airshow is held at different airports around Finland, Tampere was the choice for 2010 and no word on 2011 yet. :)

In that case, please let me know where 2011 is planned. My best friend just fell in love with a girl from Vaasa ... so I have plenty of reasons to visit your beautiful country with him.

 

:D

Simply beautiful pictures ! Keep them coming.

Also open days in airbases (free entry) are very good at end of may, especially Halli and Pirkkala.

Wtf....this is art!

 

Nice stuff :)!

[Olli Vainio]

Not worth of a new thread but here are few more shots from recent weeks.

 

Finnair B757 flying some charter.

 

 

Only time I've managed to get one of these so far. Insanely good looking livery, just waiting some better opportunities to catch these.

 

New Air Finland livery, also stunning.

 

 

Soon-to-be-gone MD90.

 

Days are getting short...taken at 4pm. :(

Not worth of a new thread but here are few more shots from recent weeks.

 

You are wrong, they are most definitely worth a new thread :)

 

Beautiful shots, keep them coming!

[A321]

Stunning your work, really stunning!!!

 

And what I really like about your threads is that you don't just throw loads of pictures at us, only the best. And they are outstanding!

The colours on the last shot are just perfect. You can feel the Finnish sunset as if you were there.

 

Many thanks and keep those great shots coming!

 

Best regards,

Kevin

Hello again,

 

Few photos from recent times again. :)

 

Still few Jumbolinos flying around until they're replaced by B717's.

 

Finnair A320s are still a bit too common...

 

Norwegian started to fly domestic Finnish routes and I'm not complaining. Easily cheapeast way to head down south from here...

 

Still awesome livery.

 

Air Baltic and their B737's are regulars these days.

 

Summer charter season brings some new aircraft...

 

Air Baltic are also using their Q400's.

 

Some more charters.

 

It's too bad that there's two of these Star Alliance liveried B717's. I prefer the variable blue themes to these any day.

 

Charter aircraft branded for the travel agent.
