Plane / Planes / Aircraft / Aeroplane / Airplane appreciation

I do love a good moon and plane shot. Lovely

Thanks - and can you identify the airline?

Air Transat?

Thank you - that looks right!

Air Dolomiti?
ETA - Actually, I'll concur with @Stonehedge - Transat

Everyone onboard safe.

WTF

wtf

400mph with a glide slope of 16° gets you a descent rate of 10,000ft.min^-1

Massively over dramatised.

Well, it's definitely an emergency descent, but it's not dive-bomber territory 🙂

a flypast to celebrate your completed shed ?

i think i just missed a battle of britain flypast, heard a deep drone over east london went out but it was out of sight

Just out of curiosity what planes are they, Polish trainers,?

Assume they are Red Arrow Hawks.

Feels like air traffic is starting to edge back towards relative normality. Or perhaps more accurate to say the skies are no longer desserted!

This is from my own ADSB feed so only showing planes in a short distance from my antenna.

These blokes in their montgolfière came skimming over the rooftops earlier. They seemed to be having to burn a lot of gas to make it up the hill.

Best Instagram advert I have had in a while!

Anyone wanna go halfers?

Initial climb rate 62,000 feet per minute.

I'd rather go halves on the Mustang trainer I think

Was about to go to bed and realised SpaceX are shooting people at the ISS for the first time...

^ isn't this the second time? They flew the first mission in the summer I thought? Might be wrong. Very cool anyhow.

You're right, sorry. For some reason I was thinking that was just launching them into orbit.

This is the first actual mission launch.
