Just to let you know, I got offered a new position at my company and will move to Dubai in June. It's a great opportunity career-wise and I'm also excited of living in a new environment!
Regarding aviation photography, I guess I'll have to explore what's possible in and around DXB, but it probably won't be the same like in FRA anymore. Since I will be travelling a lot, I hope I can remain a regular contributor to this site and continue to meet spotters like I did at FRA and other airports.

Hi Konstantin,
all the best for your new Job in DXB! We didn't manage to meet in FRA, HHN or LUX during the past 4 years, but maybe there will be an opportunity in the future in DXB...

Money does not bring you happiness. But it's better to cry in your own private limo than on a cold bus stop.

V, are you coming in the hottest month to DXB, to check which camera is melting faster...?
You can gladly take over AB) (FRA / FRF / EDDF), Germany">FRA from me, but that means not just shooting the occasional head-turning shot, but document each and every movement It's hard work, actually.

Yes, I know.....
I like it hot and wet
I am still talking about the climate. New England climate is similar in the summer, temps around 100F plus lot's of humidity, but since I won't be working I will be sitting under a palm tree with a cold drink in my hand.......
Taking over AB) (FRA / FRF / EDDF), Germany">FRA???? No way my friend.....occasional photo shoots are ok, but that is about it. Still I have 2 spots I have never been to and will try them out this year!

I think N.E. is like the North Pole compared to DXB in summer.
New spots? Maybe when the new runway finally becomes operational around the time we retire.
BTW, don't I see you on June 12?
