lowering the suction pipe

There she is again, the Oasis of the Seas  ;D ;D

Now I have walked next to her, I really experienced how big she really is, 2 weeks ago she was also big but there were almost 100M between me and the vessel now only 20M, I felt really small today

So flying that thing - do you have to notify someone? Plus do you fly it or someone else? It gets some awesome pictures!  :thumbs:

thankyou, I fly it myself (it is very easy to learn) and it depends if you are a hobby flyer or for commercial use, if you are flying for the hobby (like me) then you can fly whenever you want (but not everywhere, you are not allowed to fly above harbors or houses and a lot more rules) and if you are flying for commercial use then you have to need a license and everytime you need to fly, you have to say it to the city.


btw: here is the movie from yesterday

Thanks for the info :)

Yeah I saw that. By the looks of it the Netherlands waited until it was in its waters, inspected it, found it wasn't up to scratch and fined them - good on you!

Good, more Port State Authorities need to be checking more cruise ships more strictly for crew working hours and handing out more and bigger fines to the cruise companies, maybe then they will get the message that seafarers are not just there to be abused.

I like the design of that vessel, best seen on the last picture. Bet you could still smell the fresh paint.  ;)

A week ago I caught CSL Niagara entering the port. Sorry the date/time stamp is still on them, I was using them for something else and I accidentally left them on.
