Wingshooting Adventures and Jack J. Jansma Leads Trips to Scotland for Pheasant and Waterfowl Shoots. Classic Double Guns and Sporting Events.

Climbing about 11,500 feet at 360 knots on the way from Dublin to Frankfurt on LH 979, A340 style.

 

Lufthansa have started using an Airbus A340-300 on their Frankfurt-Dublin route for summer 2019.

 

Flight LH 978/979 on Wednesdays only until Sept/ October will be upgraded from the regular A320/1 to the massive A340, a real treat at Dublin not used to regular A340 movements, certainly not passenger services.

 

Seen on the inaugural flight back from Dublin to Frankfurt, LH 979 on 3rd July 2019, D-AIGS doing the honors.

"Wing shooting" butterflies. epic year for butterflies in Tucson with the record rainfall. Wingshooting them in their activity is fun with a telephoto and VR.

British Airways CityFlyer G-LCYN, the "700th" Embraer ERJ type delivered & proudly displayed on the side.

 

Seen at London City Airport, the home of the CityFlyer fleet of Embraer's, ideal for the short runway & steep landing/ take offs required.

 

As well as the convenience of London City Airport with quicker access to London itself, the airport provides amazing views for departing passengers, you can almost touch the wings from the gates, plus all boarding is done by walkway, there are no airbridges.

The city jet & whisper jet, the unique Avro.

 

Way back in January 1987, the BAe 146 was selected as the launch jet aircraft for London City Airport (LCY).

Due to its short-field capabilities and quietness, it was the perfect choice. It was at the time the only conventional jet aircraft that could use London City Airport.

 

Cityjet continued to the last operator of this type into LCY until the onset of Covid-19 in early 2020 when the fleet was prematurely retired.

The General Electric GE90-115B, the power of the British Airways Boeing 777-300 fleet.

  

On Sunday 5th March, British Airways operated a very unique flight on the London/Dublin route using their long haul Boeing 777-300ER.

 

Boeing 777-336ER, G-STBG, built in 2013, operated the 1 hour flight, always served by their short haul A319/320/321 fleet.

 

G-STBG has 8 first class, 76 business, 40 premium economy & 130 economy seats, featuring the new Club world lie flat suites in business, in a 1-2-1 configuration featuring sliding doors, rolled out between 2019 and 2022.

In late January, British Airways widebody runs to FRA,BER and DUB were offered in their booking engine due to a cargo contract with IAG Cargo requiring additional belly hold capacity.

 

Originally 31 short-haul widebody flights to Frankfurt, Berlin & Dublin, typically served by the Airbus A320 family between February and April switched to 777 operations.

 

Sadly however from an enthusiast point of view, most of the flights were downgraded back to Airbus A321 equipment before the actual flights commenced due to the loss of the cargo contract.

 

The Dublin flight of the 5th continued, moreso because of the heavy bookings on both legs, however the flight of the 7th reverted to an A321.

Attack butterfly. I was following this Swallowtail around a small orange tree in front of my house, trying to maintain frame and focus when I got this weird posture.

Last year, this wheat field was converted into a special Sage Grouse CRP program. The wheat stubble was plowed under, and native prairie grasses were planted in it's place.

I hope to be able to continue to photograph this lek each year, and to document the progress of the habitat restoration.

No, this was not taken on a mowed lawn! Actually, the area where this image was taken is at high elevation. It is under many feet of snow for much of the year. Because of the short growing season, the only vegetation in this immediate location is short alpine grasses and small flowering herbacious plants.

Last week, I returned with my wife, Els, to the old stamping grounds about an hour east of Great Falls and hunted with a good friend, Chad Boedecker, who guides with PRO Outfitters. We spent two days with great dogs in great country sharing great times.

I flew into Bismarck, got my shells and additional supplies in town, and headed across a rolling brown ocean to Timber Lake, South Dakota (Population 592), for the three days of hunting wild pheasants. As a New Englander, I was struck by the absence of trees and endless horizons, which made me feel whatever the exact opposite of claustrophobic is. I had been invited by a friend to come along on an annual trip he makes with friends from high school and a few other folks. The group comprised nine hunters, five English Setters, three Labs, one Springer, two Griffons, and one German short hair. We had rented the bunk house at KOW Ranch and complemented our accomendations with a 1972 Airstream camper, so everyone would have a place to sleep and we’d have additional cooking facilities. The group had made arrangements with a local rancher, where we could hunt his land each day for a nominal fee.
