Another Good Evening at STN

Took a ride out again this evening for another photo session. Lots of interesting things around, and for about the first time ever I didn’t really notice many FR’s compared to the other airlines!

First off I’ll start with this optical illusion. Quite an odd angle, but don’t you think it makes the front undercarriage leg seem to be bent in my direction….?

Thanks a lot everyone, it realy is appreciated! Now that the weather is on a good turn I’ll try to be up there when I can to catch what’s around.

Dan what kind of camera is that you use?

Minolta Z10 🙂

Do Jet2 fly to STN or was that on cargo duty???

They operate on Channex passenger charters.

You always get such interesting stuff at STN! Everyone thinks its wall to wall FRS, you get DC8s, 747s and god knows what else!

Ha ha you try backing me up on that point when I so often have to argue it!

Superb shots as ever mate, saw that Land Rover Fokker at LBA last summer, isnt it Blueline not Blueberry?

Oops! That’s the one…didn’t think it sounded quite right :p

Very nice, DC8 looks great.

I’ll be over in Duxford on 25/26th June, flying into STN and have the Sunday free, might take a trip with the camera 😀

Thanks everyone, greatly appreciated 😀

Steve, Fordair are part of the Ford motor company. As far as I can find out, they operate 2 737-700’s (VP-BBT and BBU), 1 Gulfstream V (N300K) and a 737-200 (HZ-MIS). I’m sure Mark L will be able to provide more information on this. They mainly operate the aircraft on staff shuttles between the main headquarters. The 737-700’s are used regularly at STN (atleast 2-3 daily flights) shuttling staff btween the base at Stansted and Cologne.
