Hi all,
Here’s a collection of shots from Stansted taken during the last few days. Like much of the UK, the weather’s been very bright and warm here so far this week, but a little misty and hazy as well. But that looks set to change tomorrow.
To start off with, some visitors from the other side of the Atlantic…
Avro RJ/BAe 146s HB-IYZ and EI-DNJ at Stansted for attention at Inflite Engineering…
A few more regular Stansted visitors…
A pair of ex. DBA 737-300s now flying for Air Berlin…
YL-LCB, one of the two A320s recently delivered to Israir…
RA-42330; Stansted’s seen a fair few Yak-42s in recent weeks.
And last but not least, John Travolta’s B707-138B, N707JT…
Cheers for now,
Adam

Hi all – thanks for your comments and feedback
Hi Dan, she arrived at about 1330. The sun was quite high by then as you can see in the shot, but I think the haze worked in my favour and masked that a little bit!
Yup, the approach shots were taken along the old A210. There’s a layby where you can park just opposite the rental car and Stansted Audi garages. As for the other side of the approach, near the long stay car park, I normally park elsewhere and then cycle the rest, but I know the Hilton will let you park in their car park if you take a ticket at the barrier.
Will you be around to catch it leaving tomorrow?

Excellent work Adam! Can’t believe you caught the 707, didn’t have a clue it was due. What time was it? I must have narrowly missed it whilst driving to work at the terminal at 16:15.
Where were you taking those approach shots from, somewhere on the old A120? It seems as though you have taken that first MD-11 shot from the fence opposite the long-stay car park…did you not get moved on with your car?

Nice photos there, the FedEx looks good, and i love that light streak across the Air France 146. It must have been pretty awesome to see JT’s 707!:D
