Maybe they were closer to Saddleworth Moor than they planned? 😀

Is th is official? I was going to ask this and you beat me to it. When are they closing shop?
Believe its May 10th – rumours suggest that Olympic will be adding a Monday service to Manchester when Hellas Jet stop.
Weather’s a bit grim at the moment (its persisting down, so should be plenty of mud about come tomorrow morning); in fact, it’s so bad that FCA956D asked for some heather avoidance (the crew did correct themselves a moment or two later by asking for weather avoidance).

That Hellas Jet shot is very rare, they are stopping all operations soon.

Not interesting, hmm…
That Hellas Jet shot is very rare, they are stopping all operations soon. And its always nice to see a A310 at MAN. 😀
More exciting then Swiss ERJs! 😉
Nice shots though.

Wish that was the definition of ‘not much of intrest’ at my local airport 😀
Excellent shots as ever Grey 🙂

So it was a TS A310 I saw from my house.
I was out walking the dog on this glorious day and took the binocs to check out the lovely sea view when I saw a short and plump plane climbing above EDI. I was sure it was an A310. 😀
EDI has a few short, plump planes in this summer. A310, B762, B736… 😀

Nice pics, the TS A310 wouldn’t happen to be the one that went via EDI today?

Well in DUS you would see lots of spotters just for one of those planes. Nice pics.

Nice ones!
Well its more interesting than whats going on here in college lol 😀
I was just thinking the same; gee work is mental at the mo. First day been in the office this week doing far too many miles driving this week, then Grey rubs salt in the wound by posting pics from Ringway. Not Fair!!!!!
By: Future Pilot - 6th May 2005 at 13:55
Grand pics! 😀
I love the Air Transat A310! 😀 😉
By: Grey Area - 6th May 2005 at 13:09
That’s the one, then. C-FDAT, it was. 😀
By: RIPConcorde - 6th May 2005 at 13:05
I honestly don’t know, RIP.
If it helps at all, it left MAN at about 09:25.
Must have been.
