C-295 at Porto Santo

More and more you get to see the new Portuguese Air Force plane on active duty.
This time (29.Jul.2009) was at Porto Santo and a registration I hadn't photographed yet (16704)

Besides other stuff it might be doing around here, it also made the replacement of the Air Force C-212 Detachment crew.
(New crew started operating right after lunch with a Medical Evacuation to Madeira as "Medic36" and right after with another flight to Madeira, as Relax...will post some pics on this soon, with quite an interesting landing of Medic36 on the return to Porto Santo).

Took some pics through the net on the military apron and then decided to go to the terminal to try some pics of the take-off....bad choice.
Should have gone to the runway 36 treshold. The photos wouldn't be as interesting as a take-off but at least the sun light would be on the right spot and I could have make other close-ups of interest...
So here's the pics on the MilApron...and none from the take-off heading to Montijo...

  4. Belíssimos registos do Casa!! É uma aeronave cada vez mais frequente nos aeroportos portugueses, e ainda bem (embora tenha alguma pena de saber que os Aviocar vão desaparecer).
    Abraço
