Back in May, I spent several days in Europe that included visits to Frankfurt, Hamburg (for the FlyerTalk Hamburg-Do, Istanbul and Zurich. My visit to Zurich was specifically geared for spending 2 full days of plane-spotting from different airport vantage points including ZRH’s fantastic Observation Deck and 2 parking structures that over look the airport.

Over 2 days I took well over 1000 photos and have whittled them down to only a few hundred. Out of this group of finalists, I pulled out some of my favorites and share them here. There will be a follow-up post to this one that will include several more photos as I did not want to have a post with over 20-30 photos and slow down everyone’s download!

For more of my Plane Spotting photos, please visit my Plane Spotting Archive!

Enjoy!
