MAN 4 Feb 2009

A nice A/C change on the regular Libyan flight.

A British Bizjet, but still a cop.

So it wasn’t as bad a mistake as I thought then.

No, you just made two;):D Only joking:)

Cheers, Huw:)

I meant to ask if it was “Afri-Ikea”‘s (as nicknamed by most) new livery. I was well aware it was their titles, we get them down sarf you know. Didn’t spot the tunisian registration though.

As I type this I’ve realised my mistake. I usually see the aircraft from a low angle (as are the spots at LGW), never seen the black line on the top before and thought it was a new livery. My bad! 😮

You haven’t seen it because it isn’t there on the regular Afriqiyah A319 and A320 livery Dan!;) It is only applied to their A340 and any jets that are operated for other airlines, such as TS-INM.

Cheers, Huw:)

No, it’s the Afriqiyah Airways scheme.

The word “Afriqiyah” prominently displayed on the forward fuselage is something of a give-away in that respect. :p

Nice work there, Darren.

I hope that’s not their new livery, it’s horrible! 😮

No, it isn’t. This jet is operated by Nouvelair, hence the Tunisian registration rather than a Libyan 5A registration 😉 It does not sport the regular Afriqiyah livery.

I do like that Hawker 800 shot, looks very nice in the sun:)

Cheers, Huw:)

Excellent pics – that final shot and the 777 are the pick of the bunch for me.

Nice work indeed, Darren. I wish I had MAN on my doorstep. I’d never be away from the place!
