As my entry into the comp from my list of unusual types, I nominate this as it’s something I’ve never seen at GLA before. the airline that is, not the shed.
By: LBARULES - 6th October 2003 at 21:02
The first time I saw it was when I was flying on it!
Seriously though if anyone is flying BY hope for G-CDUP. It must be still the scandinavian configuration which means you get much more room and taller seats.
By: wannabe pilot - 6th October 2003 at 20:58
Yes LBA that is, it was the first time I had seen it aswell 🙂
By: LBARULES - 6th October 2003 at 20:42
Wannabe is that G-CDUP in the pic? If so I flew on that bird just about 6 weeks ago:)

THIS WILL BE LONG!
My CDG log for yesterday the 4th of October. I shall leave out all B737s and A319/320/321s of Air France. Suffice to say I have seen dozens of them. Unfortunately I did not see the A318, I thought AF had already received one or two of them? Can anyone clarify?
Normally I’d put everything that’s odd to me in bold. Since that would include pretty much every plane that is based at this airport (all AF widebodies and Fokkers, Star Airlines, Aigle Azur, Euralair, Air Post, Blue Line, Axis Airways) I will only put the planes not based at CDG in bold.
I still have not got all pics on my computer. Some have to be done by the photo-shop due to some problems with my reader. I WILL add Air Tahiti Nui, Flash Airlines, Air India and some others later!
Note that some registrations are underlined. These are links to the pic!
