    With all your advertising they should change its name from Irfanview to IrfRenFrew!

    You’re right ! Now where’s that commission cheque ? 😉

    Seriously though, I always recommend it as it’s p*ss easy to use and doesn’t cost a bean. It was Roger S who originally mentioned it on here incidentally, I’m just keeping the torch burning so to speak. 😀

    Why are there so many GLA v EDI debates on here? Everyone knows that there’s only one airport in Scotland – DND! 😀

    Perhaps I ought to reply to your post Dean in the the thread about airport codes ? Dundee=DND = ‘Drunk N Disorderly’, very apt don’t you think ? (lol) 😉

    Seen it too. A black dot on the sun.

    “There’s a little black spot on the sun today… it’s the same old thing as yesterday”

    Name that tune ?

    The rumour mill suggest new Zoom routes might
    include EDI…we won’t know until they release details.

    All additional flights will be available on the website as of August 1

    How many planes have they got now ? Last I heard they were having trouble finding enough used 767ER’s for the task.

    Ja I think you should learn to count mate. The last time it happened was 1802 which by my maths is 204 years

    By my maths that’s 202 years ago. 🙂

    The transits actually occur approximately four times in a 243 year period, the last one occuring in 1882 and the next two expected in 2012 and 2117. So the last one was actually 122 years ago.

    GLA-Glasgow
    EDI- Edinburgh
    PIK- Prestwick
    ABZ- Aberdeen

    Pretty straight forward for the main Scottish airports.
