Really beautifull photo

A visitor from United States posted Sun March 30, 2008:
Great photo... however, contrary to a former post, heavy aircraft almost ALWAYS use full flaps, unless winds and other factors do not warrant their necessity. Big airplanes need the full flap position because, just as flaps create drag, they also create a fair amount of lift because of all the wing surface area exposed. Because of this, the airplane can fly slower and maintain slow steady descent to landing.

Excellent light & great angle. Well done!

This Guy understands the meaning of the aviation art.. He understands what it means to manage with the light and the perfect instant of a situation..it's perfect.. Congratulation..it's Admirable.. Thanks to share this great picture with the whole World..

A visitor from United States posted Sun August 19, 2007:
Very cool, always loved th sleekness of the 747's

A visitor from Spain posted Thu July 12, 2007:
Flaps are not fully extended. Pilots may have a good landing speed with that flap deployment. The shot's light is beautiful.

A visitor from Italy posted Mon July 2, 2007:
Incredible pic, thanks for sharing!

A visitor from Kuwait posted Thu June 28, 2007:

A visitor from Australia posted Wed June 27, 2007:
North West should use this as a promotional shot- well doneG-)

A visitor from France posted Wed June 27, 2007:
BRAVO 5 stars at least!!!!

A visitor from United States posted Wed June 27, 2007:
Generally you dont a large jet with the flaps fully extended in case of a go around (full flaps generate ALOT of drag, and retracting them just above ground is dangerous). im guessing his flap setting is at 25ish.
Awesome picture! i really want that camera!

A visitor from Portugal posted Wed June 27, 2007:
What a beauty... I still ask myself how does this thing fly everytime it gets off the ground.
