Amazing Cloud Formation

[dbozkurt]

Just flown from Storonway to Benbecula Airport and the cloud formations we flew through was spectacular. They were heavy shower clouds but some were pure white and you felt you could see them growing. The sky was bright bright blue with the amazing colour of the clouds against them........oh I wish I was a poet.

On the down side it was gusting over 40mph in an 18 seater plan and we came into land sideways but...........hey it was a privilege to reach out and touch the sky!

I love flying above clouds, coming back from turkey late last year the sky looked like it was upsidedown. Not as impressive as the formation you described sounds but here's a pic. We also had a heavy landing at Bristol, pilot came in far too fast and a gust blew us sideways. Lot's of complaints and i'd never fly with Onurair again!



Here's a few formations i took from when i lived in Manchester a few years ago.
(sorry for the blur)

The second one looks very interesting, I love cloud formations, the one dbozkurt described sounds like it was amazing.

I find cloud formations really interesting, the images above are great and what Debs has described sounded amazing.
On our way home from a football match late this afternoon my son pointed out a cloud formation that was a perfect match for the shape of a basking Crocodile with its jaws open!!

And no I hadn't been drinking as I was driving

Just wish I'd had a flippin' camera with me to record it , but isn't that nearly always the case

Great photos. I love laying on my back looking at clouds....( the child in me..) Only flown once when i was 5, but always remember being fascinated by what they looked like up close from above.. remember thinking i could walk on them because they looked like cottonwool
Clouds have fascinated me ever since.
