So you would be talking about this bird the Pine Siskin?

My excitement last month was seeing a Mandarin Duck for the first time ever, what a Duck, obviously more common in your area!
Captain Lynn Barton.
British Airways have selected their first Woman pilot to be the captain of the first flight to arrive at Terminal 5.

My question is, are there any members on here that will be passing through Heathrow Terminal 5 on the first day of operation?
Will not be anywhere near T.5 today or tomorrow, but my connection and thoughts will be with Lynn Barton who taught me, and many others to fly in the last century!:D
One thing I did like the look of was them little ‘Pod’ things that take you from the Business car park to the terminal.
Presumably a ‘People Pod’ not an I-Pod? Anyone got a picture?
There’s a surprise! Not familiar with that scheme, what was the year and occasion?:confused:
😎 It may be of some interest that this Experimental MkVIII is at present undergoing a major servicing at a Gloucestershire airfield. The colour scheme is staying as it is, including the black interior. A ‘British’ Merlin is going to be fitted rather than the American Donk that has just been removed.
Welcome to the Forum PeteD with the welcome new news!:)
How could this happen in 2008?:diablo: A great story!
It is very confusing when the seller includes a picture of eleven models, presumably he is selling them one at a time?:confused:
Thought the ‘buffer’ would be the twelve minutes it takes the Cat to land at sea or built into the sixteen minutes it was taking the Gazelle to perform its display?:D
Winglets are approved for the 752, but I haven’t found the B.A. connection yet!
Winglet upgrades
British Airways Boeing 757-200
Although production has ceased, blended winglets are available from Aviation Partners Inc. as a retrofit to increase fuel efficiency and range.[7] Aviation Partners claims improvements of 5% on fuel efficiency and 200 nautical miles (370 kilometers) on range. Winglets on the 757 have only been approved for the 757-200 series as 757-200WL (757-200WingLets), and are pending approval for the 757-300 series.
Interesting photos, pity you couldn’t pull rank on the ‘jobsworth’!:D
You can’t print things like that without an explanation or PM me!:D
My information is that it was due to leave Pakistan on 5/10/06. It arrived in Malta from Egypt on 26/1/07, overnighted and flew to Malaga the next day. On 18/6/07 it was being worked on in North Carolina.
Obviously there are gaps in the time line where your ‘nefarious’ activities may have taken place.
I believe the aircraft started life as C-GFJC.
Whilst registered as N768JM, it belonged to F & M Aviation in Delaware, a common procedure for shell companies and genuine companies.
Usually the poster has exceeded his quota and some have to be pruned!
Inspired guess but wrong I think, the poster does have a good interest in Vulcans and Sea Vixens!:D
At the risk of incurring Mod’s wrath, can this thread be put to bed with a successfull conclusion L.L.:) ?
Thats one nice looking twotter there great shots aswel Chris.Just wondering is this Ex West Coast Air?James
Shouldn’t think so as it transitted Malta in 1/07 to the U.S. and was cancelled in the U.S. in 9/07.
Edit. I can see where you are coming from considering the colour scheme, but the AirSea is msn. 768 and West Coast Air’s are 40,106,51,96,176 and 94.
