The Queen's Arrival (HL7644, LAX, 1 April 2025)

I don't know how many KAL 747s remain painted in the old livery, but I'll be sad when there are none.

Ramstein Air Base: Any local spotters around this Wednesday?

Hi everyone,

I’m planning my first spotting trip to Ramstein this Wednesday and wanted to check if anyone here will be around.

So far I’ve mostly been shooting at airshows, but I’d really like to get more into “classic” plane spotting, especially focusing on photography. Gear-wise I’m covered with a sigma 150-600 but I have 0 experience and knowledge when it comes to spots, lighting conditions and general routines at Ramstein.

If anyone is a regular there and would be so kind as to show me a few spots (Arrival Lights / Flößbach, etc.) and where to park that would be fabulous. I'm more than happy to talk about anything setup related or just spotting together. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Coffee or a small snack is on me ;)

Cheers

Feel free to DM me in case you'd want to meet up :)

Alaska Airlines Star Wars livery @ PDX

Saw it come in to land and was lucky enough to see it when I got through security! Cute little 737!
