east/west

with the Coast Mountains to the north, airport planners rightly calculated that runways should lie east/west...most planes take off to the west, gaining extra lift from the inflow winds off ocean waters

Nice catch, with the landing gear in transit. Such beautiful arrival and departure scenery.

A wonderful last view of Vancouver when taking off. V

A very beautiful scene so wonderfully captured!
It is powerful seeing it rise above the trees!

Nicely timed and composed - I like the man-made/natural contrasts here too

A fascinating capture of this jet launching itself in the woods.

Quite a remarkable shot with the plane looming as large as the snowy peaks behind. V

Excellent take-off shot David. Almost looks like you captured a fake moon too.

It looks like the plane flew right through those trees! I think they chose that view so people would want to return to such a wonderful location!

Pretty surroundings for the passengers while they are taking off.
marie-jose wolff09-Apr-2021 21:47
excellent shot of this take-off, what a magnificent sight for the passengers of the plane! V

Love how the plane looks like it is just taking off from the countryside rather than the airport. The mountains in the background are so cool.

Nice timing, impressive backdrop
John Hamers09-Apr-2021 18:14
A beautiful setting for a take off between the vegetation and the mountains. A great and well timed capture V!
Helen Betts09-Apr-2021 16:50
One of the nicest looking takeoffs I've ever seen. Seems like it's leaving from a field rather than a runway.
Allan Jay09-Apr-2021 16:39
A wonderful composition reminding us
about how lucky we are to be surrounded
by all magnificence!

Taking apart the problems due to the neighborhood of the mountains (for the pilot), it is a nice place to take off with a lot to see when you are a passenger...V.

What a fantastic backdrop! The white birch trunks are a nice addition. V
