Default Korean Air B777 Sky Team

Following on from Lee's post about the JAL OneWorld B777, Korean Air have their Sky Team B777 in today. Rego HL7733

Updated info as of 0855: it's departed. Photos would probably have been ordinary due to fog and haze.

It did cause some interesting effects on rotation up to about 500' with heaps of moisture above the wings.




The SQ A380 which preceded it looked spectacular!

It's a shame you didn't get a side on shot...it's not a bad scheme.

I was out on Qantas drive so the shots shows more underside than I would like ... one of the better one was this one - but I'm still sorting so there could be something better in the camera still.

Yup - gets rid of heat haze .... contents of still in stomach ... eyes wobble - voila ... no heat haze!

I was at the mound for the departure, and the effect of the moisture was quite amazing. My SkyTeam shot was sadly heat-hazed, but the SQ shots show the vapour very well.

Looks fantastic! ... Like I posted to Nigel ... the preceding SQ A380 departure was amazing - and you've proved that!
