Hi all
After returning from Exeter was immediately despatched to France, only went near a couple of small “spam” fields,so ,camera in hand ………..
Rouen:
A quiet place, has a terminal and looks like it may get some Air France Regional stuff visit (though not when i do)

And that was that……..
Further north came across Le Touquet, again basically a “spam” field but lots of it, mostly British (even saw Lance’s runabout G-GREY here again 😀 )and a smashing Lydd Air Trislander:




And that was France, over the wee pond and a quick flee up to Manston in time to catch the last rays of sun and a lunar eclipse!!:

No offence mate, but are you doing the ‘off’ thing deliberately now after been told about it? You did it three times in one post!
Excellent shots by the way, Tartan Pics :).
Sorry Tom 😮

Great light for shooting at GLA there, I need to get my a*se in gear and get some shooting done before the summer season (and American Airlines) is gone !

Last night I was planning an early visit to GLA but had difficulties getting out of bed. (Unlike you who must have difficulties getting in:-) )
Love the Co 757 landing!

Then homeward bound arriving back at Glasgow around 7am to catch the last of a misty early morn:







Then whilst chatting to some of the other chaps, we were talking about the A380, and as if by magic………….
F-WXXL flying away from the airport does a turn and comes directly overhead in clear skies 😀
Off to finish work and a second visit revealed i missed a Martinair 767 charter, but got the following:





And that is all, sleep very required now 😀
