Plane Spotting At BOM -- Part V

So, I am back in business again...

I have often been asked what do I fancy in planes.... Well there is an indescribable thrill in spotting a plane. A sudden rush of adrenaline pumps me up... 

Why?

I don't know. Who cares why when there are so many beauties around...

This latest series of Plane Spotting At BOM from this morning's trip to Bangalore. Boarding a 0635 flight to Bangalore from here in Mumbai, brought me up close to a bevy of heavies from near and far... Enjoy!

The Ethiopian Dreamliner, pushing back, with the red beacons flashing...

The Boeing 757s and 767s on the BOM-ADD has been upgraded to the Dreamliner!

Pushed back and ready to taxi...

Turkish Airlines Boeing 777 - Turkish used to fly the Airbus A340 and the Airbus A330 on the BOM-IST route. I was a bit surprised to see the Boeing 777 here...

Incidentally, a few years back, in 2011, a Turkish A340 skidded off the main runway 27-09 here, into to mud, forcing a shift of flights to runway 14-32

There goes a Kuwait Airways Airbus A340 - they usually fly in A320s into BOM

The Kuwait A340 makes its way to the runway

Kuwait Airways A340 on its takeoff roll....

Sunrise at BOM....

Singapore Airlines Boeing 777 getting ready to depart for Changi...

I am yet to see their Airbus A380 here!

I love this bird from Plaisance! Air Mauritius used to fly in Boeing 767s in the early 2000s. They moved on to the Airbus A340 equipment and now the Airbus A330...

I will always sweet memories of flying on Air Mauritius!

And now we push back.... and its time to grab a few winks!
