Planes and stuff

Yesterday we got, at Madeira, for the first time, the Tuifly 50th Aniversary livery and it looks really great and brings out some nostalgic feelings, regarding the Yellow Cab and Hapag-Lloyd bits of it... B737-MAX8 D-AMAH arriving at runway 05, from Dusseldorf... Taxiing to the stand, by Wizzair A321NEO 9H-WDZ, which was getting ready for the return flight to Katowice. Didn't wait for the departure, which was to Hannover. For the sake of nostalgia...3 shots of the liveries presented on this plane (all at Madeira, of course) Hapag-Lloyd A310 D-AHFZ, back in Nov.2004 D-AHFS, with HLX livery, back in Jan.2010 Tuifly livery D-ATUN, departing from runway 23, Nov.2023

Hurray for Tuifly! They have to be the most interesting airline flying to Madeira...lots of special liveries and they seem to be coming out in quite a quick way... After some time waiting for D-AHFR (that still didn't come to Madeira...despit it looks like it's schedulled to come next week...) we managed to get Tuifly newest special livery without waiting too much... Straight from a special livery to another (check HERE ), D-AHFZ now bears the Mein CEWE Fotobuch special livery... Yesterday it came twice to Madeira...went for the afternoon arrival arriving under a nice afternoon light.... smoky landing, while a TAP holds off runway 05 Its airline brother DAHFW, now back to Tuifly colors taking off (was previously with Air Berlin colors) Pushing-back It's not an amazing livery like other Tuifly has been carrying but in a time that planes are beeing painted with more and more white it's great to spot something as colorfull as this one... ...

Like I mentioned last week, finally caught the DB Regio. Despite the regular Tuifly livery beeing nothing too thrilling (although the yellow livery looks a lot better than the blue one...) still, Tuifly has been the airline that comes to Madeira with the most special liveries and great ones! So, a small selection of these liveries, that I've caught, during times... D-ATUF 's Hapag Lloyd Kreuzfahrt looks a lot like the old Hapag Lloyd livery (but it's a pretty sight indeed...) D-ATUD, the Goldbaren Haribo was also one that I was after for quite a while before getting it... Fantástic livery! D-AHFZ, a nice livery but not too outstanding...never managed to get it in sunny days... The day's I photographed it, the only sun was the one on the tail... D-AHFM, the Blue Haribo looks really nice but the Golden one beats it, no doubt.... D-ATUE the DB1 Regio, really great livery (but the 2, red, looks a lot more colorful...) Only caught it in rainy day...

For now the only Tuifly's special livery I'm still missing on my archives is the DB Air Two (D-ATUC)... Still, despite having already photographed D-AHFZ (GlücksbringAIR), none of the pics were one of "those"...so, managed to arrange things in order to pass by at the airport for the landing of this Tuifly special livery The sun was shinning on a beautifull afternoon and then...when the plane came, the sun on its tail must have scared the real one that got shy and went behind the clouds....crap.... regular approach and landing with quite some smoke...
