    Excellent shots, Lance. Although I’m not a huge fan of the A330, the MYT one is brilliant. Will you be at MAN tomorrw at all?

    I wouldn’t have thought this would make any difference, Tommy. Most aircraft are only on the ground for 1-2 hours. I would guess it’s just the luck of the draw.

    Good report FLYBYDONNI. It would be much easier to read with proper punctuation though. Just a hint for future reference.

    I’ve just phoned Alitalia again and they have informed me that there have been some computer problems and flights have been showing as full even if they are not. I have been advised to check back next week. As I suspected then, this was a computer glitch. Thank goodness for that as I really want to get on the E-170!

    The schedules are back up for MAN this winter but the flights aren’t bookable. Very strange. I rang Alitalia last night and all they said was that there were no flights scheduled. I suspect a computer glitch but can not be sure.

    I think you mean 06L or 24R. I’m not aware of any departures of 06R between 12pm and 3pm.

    06R is normally only used for arrivals. I’ve never seen departures off that runway. Similarly, 24L is normally only used for departures although I did see them using it for arrivals a few weeks ago. I havve no idea why since I had never seen it used before and have not since.

    Both runways are normally in use until around midday. Single runway operates until around 15:00 to 15:30, at which time the second runway opens again. This is how it normally works and all times are approximate.

    Hope that helps.

    How come it would let me book them yesterday then? Also, I can book flights to LHR for after 28th October today. That would make no sense.

    You just beat me to it Future Pilot. I know that the 319’s come in from their bases such as CGN so that would explain their presence at LPL.

    Here’s hoping I get on the 733 then as they’re becoming rarer now!

    Thanks for the info guys. Phil, I assume it’s NG as I don’t think EZY have any 733’s any more, Someone correct me if I’m wrong.

    I agree with both of you about advice. I have only ever posted on set of pictures on here shortly after I got my new camera. They were unedited as I have no idea how to successfully edit pictures. The only responses I got were “cool pics” type replies which did not help me at all. Maybe once all this is sorted out, I’ll post some more and hopefully get told straight if they’re c**p and how I can improve them.
