Tokyo Haneda has the best night spotting. Disagree? This topic will change your mind @ RJTT

Real World Aviation Spotting

HELLO COMMUNITY

I just returned from Japan on a joint trip with @Altaria55. Japan does most things well, but of the places I’ve been they’re first in three things: bathrooms, food, and spotting. If you’re a commercial spotter with a full frame, the whole country is a gold mine. The crown jewel? Probably still Itami river spot on a nice sunny summer afternoon BUT once the sun goes down this is it. The greatest night spotting airport in the world. Let me show you why.

(All real pans unlike @Darkspoul and @Butter575)

Gear: Sony α7RIV & Sony 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 GM OSS

So yeah, that’s Haneda. What a wonderful place. Lots more cooking from this trip too, once I get the motivation to do so.

DFW is mid

Crimes. Lock him up.

Haneda is cool yeah but if you’ve got a crop sensor it becomes significantly less cool

omg (shush)

Lightroom! I actually find it to be superior as well as easier.

You can’t even fly cause every time you get on a plane you put it above the MTOW.

People think the UPS 747 tipping incident at ICN was because of an unlocked maintenance thing in the gear but it was actually that they forgot to unload Humanguy :broken_heart::broken_heart:

I will be winning most mid spotter of the year
