COP26 around Scotland.

Post by Lossie15 » Sun Dec 05, 2021 12:20 am

Hello all,

As you'll know Glasgow hosted many world leaders for the COP26 Climate Summint back in early November. There was a decent turn out of government jets split between the three larger airports in Scotland. Here's a selection of my shots from EDI and GLA.

Enjoy

You did very well to catch all those in some fantastic conditions, very vivid colours throughout.

Thanks for sharing these, a good mixture of types and schemes. It was just a shame that I couldn't get up there to see them for myself, but can't get everywhere I suppose.

Having only seen the Aircraft which visited Edinburgh I can only comment on them, naturally the Americans Air Force One, C-32A and various C-17s and C-40s would be the stars, although the Lithuanian C-27J, Nambian Falcon 7X and the Serbian Embraer 135 along with the Canadian CC-150 amongst others were really good to see, Sadly I missed the Russian Falcon 7X but did manage to catch the Tu-204 if only at night! I have enjoyed looking at the pictures of the Aircraft which visited Glasgow and Prestwick - especially the Korean Jumbo.
