Andrew pics are lovely-don’t put yourself down!!!I especially like big plane piccies!
Nice piccies—– especially liked AF Cargo and Air Tahiti Nui!
Lovely!!!!HK is on my list of places to go after seeing the holiday prog on BBC1 on Monday!
Glad you all had a good time!Lovely pics Ren!
Wys,
When you went outbound to Zante did you route over Sussex?I found Honiley right at the top of my poor old Aerad map and looking at it with ruler in hand it looks like you possibly did?Also would you have been on the high over flights freq by then—–135.42?We see lots go over very high and possibly these are from the north and Scotland!
Hope you had a good sleep last night ! didnt realise short haul was so hectic-how many days do you work normally and how many off?My friend tried short haul but got so tired she went back to Long haul-(not so much going up the M25,just once before her trip and once after) -she comes in from SFO today and goes to Hong Kong on Sat!
Take care

PS We went to see Concorde last Thurs and I had a guided tour of where P works-the Compass Centreand lots of other places sadly BA002 was canx and BA 001 went tech with a hydraulic leak so we saw neither BUT we went to Myrtle Aveand watched a few planes and nearly got sucked upwards by a very very heavy BA 747 that just made it over the trees!!!!
Thomas Cooks is very stylish and up to dateand I definately the best of the Charters , but I do like BAs uniform ,I think possibly that they keep it, as it is so well recognised the world over?
I dont like the VS uniform even though I like bright colours myself!
Virgin Sun were bought up by Air 2000——hope this helps.
I know they operated out of LGW,could see them clearly climbing out over here with the yellow body and bright red engines,a lovely colour scheme!
Looking at an old flight routings book, they operated out of Manchester and Gatwickand covered all the usual charter routes.
I think they went at the end of the summer season of 2001 but it may have been 2000.
Lovely piccies wannabe!.Sorry to hear about your bike –hope you get it back!
Some b******s did that in Brighton on the day of the London to Brighton bike ride,they wanted the bike so much that they took the railings as well!!!Theyre’s some lovely people about!!
Not a very nice colour to look at if you’re not a good traveller and get air-sick!!!Definately needs changing.
Think the safety cards are better in the pockets like most airlines have.
Glad you had a nice holiday Wys——I have heard Brit Air a few times in the mornings going into LGW but didnt know much about them!Glad your little boy had a better return trip!
Where are you off to this week? -send me a PM of you flights if you want and Ill try and listen-its more fun listening to ATC if you know who is up there!
Best wishes
Lynda
PS the Delta 767 that had an emergency and diverted into LGW the other morning went right overhead (after dumping fuel at sea bySeaford) -I raced outside wondering what the hell was so low,and going a funny way into the willow hold!Heard DL18 and realised not a regular visitor to LGW!!!!
Lovely pics chaps—————-Thanks Ren for the Air Jamaica one and the others—— wish planes went over here that low!!!!!!!!
Would love to live in Myrtle ave or Charlwood !!
