Kuwait Airlines at 36,000 feet. by ladymagpie

Kuwait Airlines at 36,000 feet.

What can you point the camera at in the sweltering heat the other day. It was so hot I could move so sat on the patio hoping something came in view.

I was left with aircraft on a westward flight path and this needed the camera on full zoom. Here we have a Boeing 777 of Kuwait Airlines flying at 36,000 feet and travelling from Kuwait to Shannon (Ireland). For you aircraft spotters the number was 9K-AOE.

Now I expect your wondering how I know all this information from a plane flying 36,000 feet above Gloucestershire. Well there is a live website that plots every aircraft movement in the world whether it's a Boeing 747 or a local glider, check out what's flying above you:

Zoom in and click on a plane to see what it is.
A cool capture almost looks translucent

A super capture. I often use Planefinder to keep track of the family when they're on the move, very helpful to know whether their flights are on time, when collecting them from the airport
