Plane Spotting At IST

Landing into Istanbul's Atatürk Airport, I had the same expectations as earlier. I was looking forward to spotting some exotic airliners from different corners of the world - exotic carriers and beautiful birds that we do not get to see in India.



The excitement began after the extra smooth landing...



This is the home base of Turkish Airlines and as expected there was a sea of red all over...





The first exotic airliner - a Royal Air Maroc Boeing 737 from Morocco... 



Getting on to the taxiway...


...I spot a Boeing 737 of Ukraine International Airlines, the flag carrier of Ukraine...


Uzbekistan Airways Boeing 767 heading to Tashkent...
