= About Me =

I am an aviation photographer in my spare time and I run a website about spotting at Manchester Airport called [http://manchesterspotting.t83.net Manchester Spotting].

I also enjoy listening to shortwave radio. I am particularly interested in Asian stations such as China Radio International and Voice of Korea, and I am always scanning for the "Firedrake".
