Through the joys of wifi (which to my surprise is free:)), here are some photos direct from MAN. Myself, LBARULES (Tom), bmi-star (Elgan), Grey Area (Lance), and EGNM (Steve) are currently sat in the warmth of the terminal after chickening out of the cold on the level 13 car park.
No doubt Lance will have a few more to post later. Anyway, my pint glass is nearly empty so it’s back to the bar 😀

Brilliant Shots!
I love the FUA 737-800, looks great! 😀 ..and I really like the AEU 737 too!
Shame there’s no group photo though! 😉
That ex- Austrian F70 looked awful!
(The coldest I’ve been for a very, very long time was the morning of Sunday 18th Dec at Hullavingon doing ATC gliding! My slot wasn’t until late afternoon so for the whole day I was hanging around waiting for my flight, stood right in the middle of an exposed airfield doing not a lot! When I had to attach the launch cable my hands were so cold I could hardly do it – anyone who’s in the ATC and has been gliding will know those launch cables are dreadful at the best of times!)

Tom, how come your last two photos look better than mine and you used a bloody PHONE?!:)
Thanks for coming out to play guys, it was a pleasure to spend an afternoon with a great bunch of people, even if the weather did make us retreat to the bar. Then again…No complaints from me there! Thanks again Steve for driving and Lance for the photography tips, but I have to warn you Mr Modererateror, when I get my new camera you’re gonna be sooooo sick of the sight of me at MAN!
We’ll have to do it again sometime soon.
Paul
Not sure about that mate!
Indeed we will have to do it sometime again soon :).

Enjoyable day, thanks for the company… lifts not a problem!
Very discrete branding on the Midland and Austrian F70s there… I would have never guessed the previous operators!

Hi all very nice shots there guys. GA Can I save the picture of the White F100.
Three ex Pelita F100’s are joining the KLM CityHopper fleet, so temporary Eurowhite colors.
The colours are there only for a month. A bit like when they brought the BMI F70 and an AUA F70 
I was thinking they might be former EU Jet birds? Anyone know what became of those ?

F100 EI-DBR Stored at Dinard (DNR)
F100 EI-DFB Stored at Dinard (DNR)
F100 EI-DFC Stored at Dinard (DNR)
F100 EI-DFZ Stored at Woensdrecht (WOE)

Glad you all had an enjoyable day, and nice selections of shots 😀
Why is the KLM F100 all white?
By: Ren Frew - 5th January 2006 at 18:41
Why?
Doesn’t want the Brad Pitt lookalike agency hassling him to open supermarkets and hospital wings… :diablo: 😀 🙂
