A Midweek Medley from Manchester

Another lovely day… and it’s looking good for the MAN mini-meet tomorrow, too. 😀

Nothing out of the ordinary today:

1) Jetstream 31 G-BYRM of Eastern Airways.
2) A330 A7-AFN of Qatar Airways.
3) B767 G-OOBK of First Choice. This is the first of two ex-Vietnam machines. The second is due next week, I understand.
4) MD-82 I-DACR of Alitalia.
5) B737 G-STRB of Astraeus. Still fairly incognito after lease to Air Asia.
6) Another B737, this time G-XLAF of Excel Airways.
7) B777 N77012 of Continental.
8) C130s of the Royal Saudi Air Force are regular visitors to Ringway. Here is 1623. Sssshhhhh!!!!! 😉

Enjoy….. 😀

Oh right. Good luck.
You’re lucky! Seeing an AN72 eh? Is it quite rare in the UK?

The usual superb shots, Grey, spent half an hour or so up at LBA today myself (After getting in on a Craven Aviation course up at LBA next year 🙂 ), saw the BBJ2 take off for the 1st time I had seen it today, as well as seeing an Antonov AN-72 🙂
