Hi all, just a few shots from my “far to early morning in the morning” time at Bristol this morning. The sun was very strong this morning for about an hour then the low cloud rolled in, hence not the best quality. Someday I will learn how to use Photoshop properly!
Easy departure to Valencia
Easy departure to Amsterdam
COA appearing out of the low rolling clouds creating some impressive vortices.
RYR from Dublin
FCA from Heraklion
MYT departing to Mallorca
This Titan BE200 had the callsign EASY 8007 ??????
EAF departure to Mallorca
This baby maybe old but with a 40Ton take off weight she climbed better than any Airbus or 737NG this morning.
All the best from the West Country

I think it was just 2 James, it’s generally on this time of year on ITV but hasn’t shown up for the last 2 seasons, shame because I thought it was quite popular, it’s on HTV West (which is obviously ITV) here in the West Country so I am not sure if it’s on ITV national, if a new series comes along I’ll give you a shout, I can even throw the series onto DVD for people if they wish 🙂

It’s just a shame that program focuses on airport operations and not more of the flying side of things, good all the same, shame they only made 2 series of it (unless I’ve missed any)
Yeah there showing Series 2 now dont how many Series they made.

Si thanks for the reply, have you tried to submit any of these at airliners.net? would be hard to reject any of this quality

Cheers guys, with the awesome set of shots Phil J submitted yesterday as well, Bristol is beginning to make an impact on the forum 🙂
All the best

Re: the titan Beech – was there any other Titan aircraft operating there for easy? The Beech is often used to position in Titan crew.
Then wouldn’t it use a Titan/Zap callsign, since it’s operating for Titan?
8007 and others around that, 8008, 8004… have been used in the past for easyJet’s aircraft positioning and aircraft going to operate for them, positioning.
Lovely shots btw, I ordered the 70-200 F4 L on Thursday, budget doesn’t stretch to the 100-400 IS yet 😀
