A very humid and hazy morning, with sporadic rain and thunder rumbling about in the distance….. sounds like Summer to me. 😀

B737 G-XLAB of Excel Airways.

B767 G-OOAN of First Choice.

B757 G-CDUO of “Thomsonfly”. All smiles, eh?

A330 G-WWBB looking quite majestic as she is pushed back from T1.

There’s always one, isn’t there? 😉

B737 EC-INQ of Futura. This was BY329P, diverted from Leeds.

Our new “resident” Virgin 747-400, G-VLIP.
Enjoy….. 😀

Lovely work Grey! 🙂 Some of the best this year from you so far…. Loving the First Choice 767 picture.
As T5 says – Manchester is a must! Hopefully i’ll get up there at some point this year.
Cheers for posting. 🙂

After Paris in June, I’m definitely going to pay a flying visit to Manchester and Amsterdam this year. Photos from Manchester, these included, are always of a very high standard and it looks like there is little in between the camera and the subject that can spoil any shots.
Very nice selection. That Thomson 757 nose-cone is… interesting! 🙂

Hey Grey area
My wife and I travelled down from Newcastle on Friday and spent some great time around the aviation park and the level 13 car park. Did you see the Dragonair 747 which couldn’t land because of the Air France 737 supposedly?
I was on the end mound near concorde and just seen it power up over the snack bar.
P.S. I will post a photo but it is too big, do you know how to reduce them in size?
Cheers

Apparently not.
I understand that G-VBEE (the other one) is now on the Aruba register and is operated by a Russian company.

One of the leased “Classics” has left us, and the other is soon to follow, Ren.
Gone back to Atlanta Icelandic presumably ?
