Just a few pics taken this morning at ‘Birmingham International Building Site’
The blurred picture of the Cargo area (4th picture second batch)is when I was really stretching my zoom as I reckon that looks like a couple of Canadians there! 🙂
Anyway I hope you enjoy these, and I hope you think I’m getting better!
Cheers
Kev 🙂

BHX doesnt usually get the CRJs through on delivery does it? I guess FlyBe still have some level of accredition for the CRJ at their BHX base from the days when they used to operate the type?

Cheers for all your kind replies 🙂
If I keep showing these positive comments to the Mrs, she might eventually let me buy a better camera!! :diablo:
(Currently a Finepix S3500 4mp 6x opt zoom with 2.0x telephoto lense).
Cheers

Love the RJ100 😀
And lucky to see two IB CRJs over here. I adore those planes, I wish I could have seen them both.

Great shots there! and Tom, You certainly know your stuff don’t ya?! 😀

i dnt know it this is true or not, it was either the a319 or a321 i was told can cross the pond with no pax and filled with fuel!
i cant remember who told me but its sumthing to do with having no weight only the weight of the fuel! maby someone can correct me if i am wrong!

The CRJ’s made a stop-over in Keflavik from Canada before carring onto Birmingham, NWA’s new A319s seem to like routing through PIK for example, I believe Shannon is another whether they are east or westbound.
Again someone correct me if I’m wrong.

Just a question, how do aircraft like the A320/319 make their way from North America to places in Europe? :confused:

Thanks for that explanation FP 😀
I think you story stands, as I did see them being pushed out of the Flybe hanger as you suggest!
Cheers bud.

Allow me to enlighten you 😀
The two CRJ’s are there passing through BHX on delivery from Canada, the stop-over in BHX was to pull into Flybe hanger, I believe they were checked over and spanish registration applied in place of the Canadian ones.
Secondly a great batch of shots there (always glad to see some from Brum) 🙂 , rare to see a bmibaby on stand 42 there also. They usually park on the other side of the pier.
Someone correct me if I’m wrong on the CRJ’s.

Cheers! 😀
I’ve no idea what they’re doing there :confused:
Maybe someone could enlighten us.

Great selection there!
I like the bmibaby with the spray in the 1st batch!
Any idea why the two Nostrum CRJ’s there?
By: bostin01 - 17th January 2006 at 14:20
Few more! 😀
