-Fantastic shots mate, nice to see two aircraft i've flown on in that lot (EI-CNW, G-DBCC), sure the shots will get even better!
Just so everyone else knows, (As I asked Tom on MSN), the A319 was subbing for bmi Baby.

-Nice photos, and congrats with the new camera. Think you will like the set-up a lot. I have the Sigme 70-300 as well and am quite happy with it.

-Thanks you Tom, Pete and Mark! :) :D
Yes I was very pleased with it, something to get used to though from the previous Fuji S5000 I had, looking foreward to using it again as soon as I can.

-Well done mate! Cracking shots there. You will certainly make it into the pro-league of photographers now :D
You have even persuaded me to try and get a 350D as quick as possible...or is it called Jealousy ;)

As Tom said the BMI A319 was operating for bmibaby who seem to be short of aircraft at present as this Titan B737 was also operating for them today.
Thanks again for all the comments :D very much appreciated

-Great shots! Love the LH 320. I've flown in and out of BHX before but never had any time to get my camera out. Sounds like another excuse to book more flights I think!

-Another great shot of that G5 Tom, I think it divides its time between BHX and CVT, just for interest it arrived earlier today from LAX via a place called Boca Raton! I think its owned by one of the local manufacturing firms?

-True it does, I have seen it before but had never got a decent picture untill today. Too bad I didn't hear where it was going......

-Fab pix Tom! Very nice indeed! Like the Titan photo. I see you got the Lufty airbus with the footy nose. I got the 733 with the nose at MAN.

-Good shots Tom! Where did you go to get these shots and did you need a step ladder or anything. I want to get the flyBe B733 at BHX some time soon!!

-Thanks Anthony, I was at the very end of the Long Stay 1 carpark, it brings you right to the threshold of runway 33/end of runway 15 so you can either get them departing runway 15 and exiting runway 15 and taxiing to the Terminals or taxiing to/waiting to line up on 33 and landing/taking off runway 33.
As I don't drive yet I'm not too sure of what the charges are to park in there at any given time, yes there is a fence with what can only be described as long plastic strips passing between all the holes in the fence which in effect makes photography impossible unless you are tall enough to be over the fence!
Anyway some people have removed alot of the strips and at the very end have actually pulled the fencing down a little! to create a hole big enough for any lens to fit through and that's what I was using on my last visit although a step-ladder may be in order next time as it's kind of awquard using a DSLR through it but I got the results above, any camera that's smaller should be fine.
Or you could just bring a step-ladder and avoid the above!

Good Evening All!
Spent the day at BHX today and even though it was cold it was very sunny so thought it a perfect time to go try out my new Canon 350D! with Sigma 70-300mm lens.
So here's a small batch from today in no particuler order, was chuffed to see the B732 again also.
Enjoy! :D
