    Nice report there!! Looking forward to the rest of it!

    The Salzburg flight is a scheduled GB Airways, and not a ski charter 🙂

    Cheers Jon, hope you like the next installment, Bangkok-Singapore, in a 744!
    Took just over 2hrs this evening.

    Parked at the main concourse at the new airport

    Climbing out, a nice overview of the field!

    After a bumpy cruise, we came round Changi, to land on 02L, might seem as a nice landing in the shots, but there was plenty of turbulent air round, expecially on finals!

    Evening all!

    I “believe” its only the older versions. They will keep the 73G for a while yet in the fleet, but don’t be suprised to see the A319 across the board by the middle of the next decade, or earlier even!

    Yeah, not as much orange which is good. I know EZY are gettinghave loads of A319s but what was the point it getting rid of most of the 73-700s when they were only a few years old?

    The 1st 73G’s are nearly 10 years old by now Sam, RYR doing just the same with their early 738’s 🙂

    Anyway, the 73G are going to GOL, so they are not being retired from service either.

    Yep, been in service for a week or two now! Also, BB has apparently lost his starboard winglet.

    Yup! Looks like here anyway! – http://www.ringwayreports.co.uk/ZE704_SG_231206.jpg
    You can just feel the blankness on the end of that wing 😀

    Buisest day today since some time. 3 sectors planned, flew the 1st this morning, a nice 90 min flight from the mild conditions at Osaka/Kansai, to the -8C of Sapporo on the Northen Island!

    Flew in daylight, as i had enough of darkness for a while :p

    All set, at the superb terminal
    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v634/elganthomas/day7-1.jpg

    Taxying out to 06, there are 2 runways now ay RJBB, but there scenery and FS only has one.
    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v634/elganthomas/day7-2.jpg

    A view of the bridge as we climb out, some nice VFR scenery of Osaka too over there!
    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v634/elganthomas/day7-3.jpg

    Don’t think i’ll pop back to Kansai, i might do if i have the time, but heres a nice view of the man made island!
    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v634/elganthomas/day7-4.jpg

    So from the Greenery of the mainland, to the cold conditions on the north island!
    http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v634/elganthomas/day7-5.jpg

    Parked up at Sapporo, back down to Tokyo/Haneda later on in the 744!
