Australia is up the spout, my dad was taken ill last night and it is serious. I was also due to go to NCL with Johnny today but sadly couldn’t due to what has happened, looks like I’ll be going in December.
Sorry to hear that Ben..may I on behalf of myself and the forum wish him a speedy recoverery.? Our thoughts are with you and your family.

what a treat.. I missed em all 🙁
anyone fancy meeting up at Edi tomorrow? 12noon at spooks
It’s the airshow at East Fortune tomorrow, so expect quite a few interesting movements if you do pop along.
I wouldn’t mind, but there is the small matter of transport, and dragging myself out of my pit! 😮

Air Transat?
Yes! 😀 Excellent, and I’m finally coming round to their new livery, even though that particular one is still in the old one.

I’d love to but my demanding son is determined to get me drunk at his golf club. :rolleyes:

Great photos! Loving the BA ones! I love the livery. Any more?

It’s a shame to see that British Airways are pulling their 757s out of service or something along those lines.
Is this just a seasonal change or is it a sign to suggest that the 757s are on their way out?
BA’s shuttle flights into EDI are absolutely heaving at the
moment… The odd 767 is often employed.
I think BA must let the bookings run rather than curtail
them and they utilise aircraft accordingly.
7E7s next? 😀

The EEZ went tech I think. The 752 holds about 50 more pax in charter config?
I think a British Airways 752 holds about 180 passengers compared to 220 or so in a charter configuration.

Excellent! 🙂
Air Finland was in for Eurofly wasn’t it?
Those A320s just aren’t big anough! 😉

When I flew BA 1465 back in December, we were flying on G-CPEO down to Heathrow from Edinburgh. I remember there was some speculation at the time of the flight though, with many forum members saying they would be surprised if it was actually a 757 flying the route. Whilst shopping for flights a couple of days ago, I came across this same flight with British Airways. The service is now operated with an A319.

They chop and change a lot I think, the 752s may well just have been put on other flights to EDI and beyond! 🙂

No 757s are due out until at least November, and none have left the fleet for about a year. There are still quite a few flying to EDI, just at different times of different days.

Can’t think of a better thread than one devoted to photos of 757s 🙂
Great photos as ever Joe.
