dark light

Manchester 02 June 2100hrs

Having just arrived up on a Flybe service from Southampton (very light load by the way). I noticed two not so commonly seen aircraft these days, a European Airways 737-200 (once this type was everywhere in the Uk, not now!!). I thought this company had closed down, after they had a load of 747s a few years back ??. Then a Fed-Ex MD11, havent seen anything DC10ish at a UK airport for sometime, so was nice to see a few blasts from the past…..and the MD11 did make quite a blast as it took off !

Yeah, the B732 has been operating for FlyBe for a while, it was at LBA a couple of months ago!

I know the European B732 is operating charter flights out of Manchester throughout the summer,

and yeah i remember the B742’s they had operating,
