Aviation pics taken at EDDT (Tegel/TXL)

Hi there, I could not find a dedicated thread for Real life aviation pics so I started this thread.
My son and I flow out to Berlin at Sparrowfart yesterday morning with Transavia Airlines for 4 days in Berlin.

Of course aviation photography is one of our favorite hobbies and we spent a little time on the roof of Tegel Airport yesterday morning. It was close to freezing, about 0.5 degrees I think .... but we took some nice pics, .. I have only edited three of them but will upload more in the next few days!

Turkish Airlines departing Tegel. This aircraft landed shortly after we got onto the roof, It iwas inspected by police, firedepartment and the overwing exits were opened for a while, .. I think there might have been a gas leakage or fuel leakege or something. It seems like the fire department blew air ?(with fans) through the aircraft, I reckon sdomething must have leaked, . anyway after about 2 hours on the gorund the aerie departed again.

And again we spent a good 6 hours (in 0 degree temps) to shoot most of todays traffic :) )

If you guys want I'll gladly edit and post some more pics!

Nice Pics, Keep posting.
Last time I tried to get pics at KGSO, 2 years ago, from outside the fence from a public street I was told by airport security to leave and not to take pics anymore. I was lucky they didn't take my camera but I did have to delete the pics I had taken.(yes they were in uniform in a security vehicle) Such is life now days.
