Damn getting photos of it approaching 14 in this weather might have been quite nice, too cold for me though, car or no car! :D.

The Thomas Cook B757 has now landed, Along with everything else at the moment. The airport is fully operational at present. LBA was snow closed between 10:30 and 12:20.

Apparantly, G-GTDK positioned in from EMA to operate the outbound flight on time.
The inbound flight was due to be operated by a JetX MD83 TF-JXC, arriving about 7 or 8 hours late! Don’t know why, sure there was a perfectly good reason.

Didnt MyTravel reverse yesterdays flight for some reason?.
I understand it worked LBA – TFS – LBA arriving back about midnight instead of TFS – LBA – TFS.
So it could have been at LBA prior to 4pm.
The only people inconvenienced were those returning to the UK

No chav my ar*e :D.
The Thomas Cook left about 11, if you saw the MyTravel you must have been up there about 4, bit of a time difference!
I’m hopefully going to and see it tomorrow, you around Steve?

Not sure. Presume positioning same morning. Expected back on Sunday around 2pm. I’ll keep you updated.

Nice one, that means that the Thomsonfly 757 and this Thomas Cook 757 depart within about 5 minutes of each other, wish I was off college to go and get some shots :(.
I still have the ‘claim to fame’ (As Far As I know), of been on the only Thomas Cook 757-300 to visit LBA :D.
By: A330-300 - 3rd March 2006 at 08:42
Cool, what time is it arriving?
