An Unusual Visitor to Manchester

Among the “usual” suspects at Manchester this morning was A340-313X D-AIGX of Lufthansa, on a medical diversion. Sorry about the backlit shots, but I’ve not figured out how to move the sun yet. 😉

1) Airbus A320 D-AIQL of Lufthansa.
2) B747 TF-ARL of Air Atlanta, ops for MASKargo.
3) Airbus A340 D-AIGX.
4) D-AIGX again.
5) B757 OH-LBX of Finnair, ops for Air Scandic.
6) B737 G-XLAE of Excel.
7) B777 AP-BGK of PIA.
8) G-CEAC B737 “Classic” of Palmair – specially for danairboy and RenFrew who love them. :diablo:

Enjoy.

Very nice indeed

Great spot for photography!
Interesting in that a LH A340 diverted into PIK a few months back on another medical emergency! 😮

Great pics! You must have been there at the same time as me as I saw all of them, the Lufthansa A340 was a big highlight!

ALSO talking of unusual visitors an RAF VC-10 just roared past my house going into MAN!!

The usual superb shots, are they from the T1 cafe?

Wish I would have been there for the LH A340 – Read about it on RingwayReports this morning.
