A380 over PMI

Ungelesener Beitrag von PMI-01 »

Last night around 2200 we enjoyed our 27°C pool and as we are within the approach route into PMI (during southerly and easterly winds), we had a large airplane silently flying overhead...we commented about it maybe being a 757 "..but a very silent one" flying at about 7000 ft. Very dark night and we did not count engines ;-) Strange about the aircraft was: it was really silent and it had only the minimum cruising/ position lights on. Normally all a/c coming in above us already have their "landing lights" on, some even the gears out. THIS a/c did not take a turn east and then southwards towards the airport...it went straight N/E leaving the island in direction to Minorca.

We found it odd, but didn´t give it a second thought until today I read within the "Ultima Hora" ( NO, I do not read any German papers here) that the A380 did pass over the island several times during the last days and was fotographed at least 2 times doing overshots at Son Sant Juan....

Anyone out there already saw one of those pics and can give me an URL? Angry I missed out on that one...
...keep to the code.

More probably Ultima Hora...;-), but I meant the good pics not some "far away journo"...
