Eastern Airways Embraer ERJ 190-100 LR G-CLSN at Southampton. TZ70_2_P1010557CE

Planet 9 Bombardier Global Express 6000 N926PN at Southampton. Sometimes, the classic shot is not available and you take what you can get or turn the limitations and setting to your advantage. In this picture, the aircraft remains the main subject but a bit of the airport environment is included and used for framing. TZ70_2_P1010227CE

On Thursday 5 March 2020, Flybe became the latest airline to cease operations in difficult circumstances probably exacerbated by the affects of coronavirus. On the following Sunday I made a sad pilgrimage to Southampton Airport, one of the worst affected as Flybe had accounted for 90% or more of its movements. Bombardier Dash 8 Q400 G-PRPC was one of six Flybe aircraft grounded there each with a vehicle, in this case a snowplough blocking a very improbable escape attempt. TZ70_P1020027E

I wanted a b&w treatment of this shot as it seems to me to reinforce the sense of gloom emanating in particular from the impassive eye of the camera. TZ70_P1020029CM

On Thursday 5 March 2020, Flybe became the latest airline to cease operations in difficult circumstances probably exacerbated by the affects of coronavirus. On the following Sunday, flights by other airlines were expected but the terminal seemed bereaved. Flybe had accounted for 90-95% of Southampton's movements. TZ70_P1020034

Eastern Airways Embraer ERJ-145MP G-CHMR approaching runway 20 at Southampton. This aircraft is currently operating for Flybe between Southampton and Rodez and within France. 200_3_P1070480CE

A rather clumsy shot of Beech B200C Super King Air N150RL approaching runway 20 at Southampton. In my efforts to make sure that the registration is visible I have managed to obscure completely the cockpit. 200_3_P1070479CE

During my primarily railway oriented visits to Eastleigh I frequently see a steady stream of inbounds to nearby Southampton Airport (when RW20 is in use). I try to capture some with mixed results. This is a very hastily snatched shot of Beech 76 Duchess G-BNUO approaching RW20 for a go-around. 200_2_P1070360C

When engaged primarily in railway photography, the aircraft approaching runway 20 at Southampton can catch one by surprise. A quick change of settings was not enough to avoid a lack of sharpness in this shot of Flybe Dash 8-400 G-JECX. 200_2_P1020007C
