Aerial views of the ground

Two more photos from the archive, taken in August 2005 from a Boeing 737 on final approach to Warsaw Okęcie airport. The first shows the southern end of ul. Trombity, the second the northern end. You can see the proximity of the flight path to the street. Image quality compromised by airliner's double-glazed perspex window.

The second aerial pic clearly shows the row of 16 poplars and the railway line, on which a six-car EN57 set in the old orange-and-red livery is heading towards Warsaw. Beyond the track and the fields is the Action warehouse; behind it stands the village of Zamienie (and in the trees at the top of the pic the old vaccine factory); in the top right can be seen houses from the village of Dawidy Bankowe
