The observation park Jacques de Lesseps was inaugurated in May 2012 to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the airport.

The park was named in honor of Jacques de Lesseps, a French aviation pioneer who, in 1910, was the first pilot to fly over the city of Montreal aboard his Blériot XI. It would be the first park of its kind in Canada, according to ADM. Rain or shine, summer or winter, the park is the appointment of aviation aficionados or those who dream of flying.

Hello from the critique club

An appealing image that meets the challenge

Although there is not much evidence of speed it is implied through the obvious fact that the plane has taken off. Looking at your data it would have been difficult to show speed through motion blur even with a smaller aperture the shutter speed would probably have still been too high but a shot in lower light, dusk perhaps, and a much slower shutter speed to show some motion blur would, for me, have been more effective. I like the distortion of the background from the engines turbulence. Thanks for a generally a pleasing image Marcel

it seems unusual to see buildings this close to a plane that close to the ground
