This Boeing 747 created a snowstorm while departing with full thrust engine power at Liege. The Boeing 747-8F of Honyuan Cargo is quite new in the belgian skies. The aircraft can be seen departing Liege Airport for Chengdu in China. Snow is quite rare in belgium but this time we finally got some snow here and of course I drove all the way from germany to Belgium to film some planes in the snow. The traffic was great and I was quite lucky with the first two B747`s. The Hongyuan and Silk Way B747 both were scheduled to depart during darkness but due to de-icing and other issues both of them had delay and departing during perfect morning light conditions.
It` s quite impressive to see these massive B747` s blasting away all the snow which was peacefully lying behind and next to the runway. The snow clouds behind the aircrafts give the entire scenery a dramatic effect and that` s what I enjoy most about filming during these winterly conditions.
A nice unusual visitor this day was the Boeing 747-400 Freighter of Atlas Air which arrived from Indianapolis in the USA. I assume it was operating a flight for MSC Cargo which has its european base in Liege and they only use flight crews of Atlas Air to operate their fleet of Boeing 777 Freigheters.
