5 stars for capturing such a suffocating shot! I also agree with what Jayesh says about the 340s' climb rate.The only 340 I get to see in my city is from the Gulf Air and it always leaves me breathless by talking a long run till the end of the runway yet a very low pitch rotation.I think Airbus should upgrade 340s' engine.

A visitor from India posted Fri May 16, 2008:
The A340's though are attractive but technically speaking have a very low rate of climb esp the 300 series-Anyways.....This picture just rejuvenates mu senses...- Jayesh

A visitor from Lebanon posted Thu November 29, 2007:
Great shot indeed. 340s are very attractive birds. The background shows this bird in its natural habitat :)

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Thu November 8, 2007:
Love the wing flex. A340's are beautiful aircraft.

A visitor from Brazil posted Sun July 15, 2007:
Very hard.

A visitor from Turkey posted Wed November 8, 2006:
A take-off and landing are the two great moments in seing a plane in flight. That's the reason for the five stars. Good work !

A visitor from Australia posted Thu August 24, 2006:
Is it just me or is it taking off a little bit to one side? Take a close looks at the wheels. But still great shot

A visitor from United States posted Tue August 1, 2006:
You know, they would get in the air faster if they flapped their wings, which it looks like he's trying.

A visitor from United States posted Mon July 31, 2006:
Look at the flex of the wing! Outstanding

A visitor from Switzerland posted Mon July 31, 2006:
Love the 340s although they're bad climbers...

A visitor from Czech Republic posted Mon July 31, 2006:
Looks really great! I like the background a lot - it is green and nice.

A visitor from Canada posted Mon July 31, 2006:
It sure does! Looks like it's going to east asia or the US west coast.
