In den frühen Morgenstunden nahmen wir den Weg nach Luxembourg unter unsere Räder. Nach etwa vier Stunden und eine kurzen Pause nach der Grenze zu Luxembourg und Frankreich trafen wir am späten Vormittag am Airport Findel ein. Sogleich begaben wir uns an den westlichen Anflug, zur Piste 06. |

Luxembourg-Findel Am frühen Nachmittag kam dann kurz Hektik auf als ein doch eher seltener Gast, unerwartet auftauchte; ein Airbus A300-B4 (ex Japan Airlines). Das Flugzeug war über Monate in Südfrankreich abgestellt und befand sich nun auf dem Flug nach Dresden. Dort sollte die „N4602“ zu einem Frachter umgebaut werden. Wegen eines technischen Defekts musste die Maschine einen unplanmässigen Stopp in Luxembourg einlegen; sehr zur Freude der anwesenden Spotter! Unser erstes „Highlight“ war im Kasten! |

Nur kurz
danach rollte eine Cargolux Boeing 747-8F (LX-VCC) an den Start. Nun liessen
aber die Lichtverhältnisse extrem nach (Gegenlicht) und so entschieden
wir uns einen der Ratschläge unserer lokalen Spotterfreunde umzusetzen
und fuhren in Richtung Cargoterminal und Ramp. |

Gut
ausgeschlafen frönten wir am ausgiebigen Frühstücksbuffet und stärkten
uns für diesen Tag. Danach war einmal mehr „Action“ angesagt; obwohl
François die Sache eher gemächlich angehen wollte; es war ja Wochenende
und dazu noch Pfingsten! |
