dark light

Glasgow, couple of goodies, Leuchars, and another old smoky at EDI today

Busy boy today. Started at GLA arriving just in time for new Eurocypria 737 leased from Sunwings carrying it’s Canadian reg…lots of biz/private stuff at GLA this morning:

Then had a job to St. Andrews, with it being about 6 miles from Leuchars, and Tonkas whizzing overhead i felt i should pay a wee visit
(Apologies for the mil content)

Then while watching a wee Grob perform a touch n go, a couple of tonkas buzzed over the top of it, made for an interesting photo subject (if not quality, as i was’nt expecting it and had camera on wrong settings….honest!!)

Which then had to sit on the taxiway for 15 minutes to get a stand!

Sorry for the missing wheels (Edinburgh rife with wheel thieves:D ) OE-LMH now with MAP Executive, it is working for Globespan at EDI for a wee while

The Tristar finally getting to go to a stand

(For anyone around EDI on friday….the return flight of this charter is due back then, maybe the Tristar, maybe the GirJet 757)

Finally back home to Glasgow with just enough light at dusk to shoot visiting UAE Challenger parked in a very handy place (This is apparently staying for 4 or 5 days for anyone around GLA next few days)
