Madeira 2020 Highlights

Imagem
A strange year, 2020 hadn't many moments worth highlighting, at Madeira Airport... Still, there were a few... On January got my last shots on a Norwegian Air Shuttle (and most probably the last ones ever...) (Check HERE ) On February, Great Dane made its first flight to Madeira, with the Embraer 195LR OY-GDA (check HERE ): Also on February another highlight from Denmark...Danish Air Force C-130 with United Nations titles. (Check HERE ) On March, Eurowings provided us a couple of nice catches... A320 D-ABDQ with the Europa Park livery (check HERE ) and D-ABDU, with the Hertz livery (check HERE ): This summer, the firefighting helicopter was a Wucher Helicopter one... Check HERE On October, Luxair brought us, for the first time, its special livery on LX-LGU (check HERE ) On December, a couple of highlights... TAP brought us, for the first time, its new retro livery plane, A321NEO CS-TJR. Check HERE The other (and one of the highlights of the year) was Wizz Air first flight to Madeira...

Royal Danish Air Force C-130J departure

After the night-stop, time for the Royal Danish Air Force C-130J B-536 to depart for the final leg of its trip... With a cloudy and dark day, decided to give it a try on a spot that usually, at that time would be strongly backlit but, on the other hand would probably provide more interesting action shots...was counting on the clouds keeping its dark look... All in all...I guess it could be worse...(it could also be a lot better, off course...) Getting the plane ready, after the night... Engine on! all four running and almost ready to go....love the prop blur of those propellers... A few shots of the take-off, where the backlit would do more damage.... Have a nice trip and a good mission! Stay safe!

Royal Danish Air Force / UN C-130

Today we had the most interest traffic of the year (for me...): A Royal Danish Air Force C-130J...and the "cherry on top of the cake"...with UN Titles... It was the first time I got a Danish Air Force plane. A few shots of the arrival of C-130J30 B-536. On a dark day, we were lucky enough to get some sun on the touchdown... :) :)
