Nice Shots! Where were you stood when you got moved on?

How about Singapore? I’ve never been but it’s on my must-see list. And it’s obviously got the option of flying on the A380 if that floats your boat…

It is pretty craply sensationalist, isn’t it?

“the Senate is even considering a bill that would require airlines to evacuate passengers after three hours on the runway” … i think they mean taxiway…

“Want to save yourself hours of discomfort on the runway? Consider this list before you book your next flight” … the list is pretty much every domestic US carrier!!

Its not news worthy simply because it may show they are human after all…

Very interesting point… unfortunately I don’t think it’s the news networks seeking to blinker our view of iran, but actually the narrow minded view of the news watching public.

All too often after a plane crash the headline reads “5 britons feared dead in nigerian air crash”. Not even a mention of the 100 other black people who also lost their lives. Unfortunatly it’s true that headlines like this are more likely to grab the attention of the british (and indeed american) white middle and working classes.

I don’t agree with it, but there’s definately a sentiment that “if they’re not like us, it doesn’t matter”

Do you get the American publication “Airliners” in the UK???…it’s a great mag with fascinating articles and a great pictorial

We do get it but when i’ve read it I always feel as though it looks like the articles written about the airlines were paid for by the airline. Rather than a balanced and informative review it always seems to come off as more of a publicity stunt. Could be wrong… just my feeling after reading a couple of articles about Air Tran and Monarch a couple of years ago.

I’m currently sat using one of the over-priced internet machines at Stansted airport and in less than an hour should be pushing back for my first FR flight in years to VLL.

If anyone else flew there, I would have booked with them… and once I land in VLL it is my intention never to fly with them again – so much so that I booked my flight back from XRY with a 3 hour stopover at BCN to fly with Vueling instead!

Nice shot but I’m really not sure about this new livery!

Looks more like a retrojet than a new colour scheme!!

Great shots… what size lens do you use? I particularly like the first one
