What are your favorite sights you have seen through an aircraft window?
Some of mine are:
Flying over the Grand Canyon and Las Vegas flying DEN-LAX
Greenland and Polar Canada on LHR-DEN
Chicago at night time on BOS-DEN
Paris on FCO-LHR
The whole of London on approach to Heathrow from the East
Taking off from JFK to the west and flying by lower Manhattan
Taking off from AKL and flying over the city
Flying over the Southern Alps on CHC-SYD
See several planes passing by, very fast I have to say😂, that was in all the flight I made, but the great experience was to see the Grand Canyon in a flight of Copa Airlines from Panama to Las Vegas, also the desert of the southwestern part of the USA, the snow covering the north of USA, and also in a flight above the Andes I saw some condor birds flying in Colombia. Another one was in a flight to Cairo, the plane passes by the pyramids of Giza, and also the approach to Panama City by night.
On takeoff from PHOG, I witnessed a rising full moon on the clearest evening possible. It was massive, detailed, and appeared to be below our aircraft for the duration of our departure.
On a clear day, flying over the Alps is the highlight of the flight. It’s also pretty cool to see the aircraft landing in LHR when you crouse over at 34000ft.
