Few Photos from this morning

Hi All,

I got these photos this morning when I went out on the ramp at YHZ (Halifax International) with my dad. The conditions were horrible, so most flights were delayed. Hope you enjoy! For pictures, go here as Fotopic does not allow hot-linking. Have a good Christmas.

*Jealous*!

How do you get ramp access? Great shot of the 737 gear bay!

My father works with Transport Canada. I got a visitor pass, and since he has all access, my escort is him. I'll attach a photo of my pass for you to see. I'm heading out again soon. Any requests? We have A319,20,21 B737-200 & 700, Dash-8, 1 BAE146, 767 (maybe) and GA coming here. et me know, and I'll see what I can do.

Wish Manchester had a similar system... and that I knew someone working there

Having said that, 367 days ago I did get a tour round the ATC facilities there so I cannot complain!

I went to the tower a couple of years back. Spoke to one of the planes (just said Hi, as we'd been on it earlier) It was pretty neat, but I prefer to be on the tarmac where the action is. Any photo requests?

If it moves, get a picture
If it has engines, get a picture
If it moves and has engines, get 2 to be on the safe side

Nice! Thanks for that! What a drag it must be

Yeah, especially when the hub comes around. Nothing to do at all

Well, on the bright side, I saw an Embraer 145 for the first time.
