After Pushing back, we got a look at Monarch A300-600 G-MONR, this time in the new colours. (I know, I need to hold the camera straight :()

Also taxi-ing out were Air France A320 F-GLGH, and the EI 320, EI-CVA.

And so it was time to head back to El Prat for the 12:05pm flight back to Geneva.

Here are some of the aircraft on Stand that I passed while making my way to the Duty Free…

Aer Lingus A320 EI-CVA
Air France A320 F-GJVW (having some engine trouble?)

There’s only one Johnnie Hartson, there’s only one Johnnie hartson, he’s got no hair, but we don’t care, walking in a Hartson wonderland (repeat ad infinitum)

Now, I’m not convinced this wasn’t just a mirage, as when I looked again after disembarkation, it wasn’t there any more, but this pic kind of proves it was there… Ryanair 737-800 EI-DAT. Must have got lost on the way to Girona or something. No doubt Michael O’Leary would be tearing his hair out if he knew he was taking his mugs, er, I mean, customers, somewhere mainstream that they actually wanted to go. Also Parked up behind it was a MyTravel 757 in new coulors, and, closer to our gate, Gemini MD-11F N782GC, with, behind it, Excel 737 G-XLAD.

61 minutes after taking off, we landed at El Prat, but not before savouring a cup of Tea for Breakfast from the excellent easyKiosk service. The Med is always a welcome sight on descent, as the Weather is invariably better than in overcast old Switzerland.

Over by the Main Terminal, there were a couple of LX 32S’s, and a KLM 737, while at the other Satellite Terminal, SAS Commuter Dash8 OY-XCG was parked. As we taxi-ied out, we passed Austrian Arrows CRJ OE-LRH, and, by the cargo terminal, DHL 757 (I think) G-BIKX. By the Jet Aviation Hangar there was what can only be described [sarcastically, mind] as one of the smaller bizjets around, 777 VP-BRH, belonging apparantly, to Saudi Oger, and used by the Lebanese Prime Minister.
