SXM style!? 😉 The field at the 06 end also has a couple of resident dogs!
Yes, the of the canine variety! 😉 Don’t seem to friendly either! 😮

They belong the top house in Lochend Road.

I doubt they will bother anyone. 🙁

He’ll be picking up a company car at Glasgow anyway, so I don’t have to fork out extra cash for a National Express coach or something equally as ridiculous! 😀

Good Call! 😀

I would certainly second that – when I went LHR – EDI in April I thought it would be fairly quiet at lunchtime but it was chock a block and the following sunday morning (18th April) I thought an 11.05 Ryanair flight to Dublin would be quiet but again it was full up. Still – on a positive note – full aircraft is good business for my favourite airport and spotters. 😉

Pity Emirates didn’t tumble it? 😎

I was looking at the runway layout today, I reckon another
500 metres could be added, 400 at the 06 end and 100
at the 24 end. The extra length need not affect tha ILS or
Glideslope…it would basically be starter/braking
strips.. 😉 😀

Edi has some of the best spotting oppertunities of any airport when it comes to spotting outwith the airport complex. 🙂

Just imagine one of those open double deckers parked
at Spocks Sandy! 😀

LOL! I’m suprised that the pilots don’t know who you are yet?! You’re there all the time!

I did meet one on a flight a while back, joked about
page 3 shots in front of the female purser. :rolleyes:

Brill pics! Didnt know you could get the view of landing aircraft at Edinburgh!

I just love the east wind and runway 06 arrivals!

One can tell BAA what to do with their 14 foot fence
and park ones car in the publicly accessible field, and get really close to the inbounds.

The sort of access that makes 14 foot fences laughable. 😉

Lovely photos Silver Snapper! I’m loving that EasyJet one.

I swear the No1 on that flight waved! The flight Deck
crews must be getting accustomed to me. 😮

Very nice!

I’m going to Edinburgh for three days on 26 July. Unfortunately, since I left booking my ticket a little late, I had to book a flight to Glasgow instead. Saving a good £15 by doing it this way.

The Edinburgh flight was full? I am having problems getting a connection from EDI to LHR in early December.

Seems the whole world wants to fly to/from EDI.. 🙂

Absolutely fantastic photos. 🙂

Thanks LBA… I missed the emergency Loganair landing,
the flight from Kirkwall had instrument problems
evidently…everything was fine however..

Just passed EDI. Futura 738, Iberworld A320, Air Europa 738, First Choice 752, Britannia 763 were on stand, never seen so many charter airlines at EDI! 😉 The special ‘Brandenburg’ CSA 735 was there as well on the international front.

Certainly busier since Direct Holidays started local holiday flights a few years back… seems to be a licence to print money given the gradual take-up… :rolleyes:

Where are you now Britannia? 😉

You might have a point there. Can’t be that many scots wanting to go to prague.

Or that many from Prague who have the disposable income
to visit Scotland.

Ok, Prague is an attractive City Break, more importantly,
CSA are offering onward connections that make PRG
a viable hub.

I very much doubt there will be a take-up currently enjoyed from EDI.

If First Choice are ordering can we presume that the likes of Britannia will follow?

The 7E7-8 carries 217 passengers in a three-class configuration. 1st Choice will probably opt for one-class
throughout. I wonder how many seats they will cram in
if they stick to the UK charter fleet norm of a 28″ seat pitch.?

Just came across this, Snowflake new routes to:

Checked their Webpage..looks like they are transferring the service from Inverness to EDI..most flights showing ‘full’ in July….which would be a miracle given the route was only announced yesterday. 😀

good news all round at Scotland’s 2 leading international airports 🙂

PIK and GLA according to your signature? 😮

and EDI. I’m sure it wasn’t intentional to not mention them. :rolleyes:

Seems like it given past experience.. “SCOTTISH airports get £14 direct flights to Geneva” would have been more accurate 😮

Meanwhile Snowflake have announced direct flights from EDI… 😎
