That is a giggle, my those GA folks would be better off doing some gardening if they’re getting this stressed about “geeky spotters”.

Realising today was a school holiday and the sun was out, I decided to take a trip to EDI.
🙁

Can I ask why today was a school hoilday? I’ve been wondering why so many spotty oiks were on the streets today. 😀

Nice pics by the way ! 🙂

Nah… didn’t you read that Text message I sent you the other day? 😉

It’s going to Paris-Le Bourget on Thursday, and on Saturday it’s due in at Basel/Mulhouse at 11am CEST. 10am BST… surely about the same time you pitch up at Celtic Park for some little inconsequential fixture live network wide?

No point in sending me text’s when I’m at work having slept for four hours the night before, can’t really focus the eyeballs let alone the memory stuff. 😮

Paris-Mulhouse ? I was thinking of the latest Ryanair hub no doubt 😉 , shouldn’t really attempt to offer information like that so early in the morning.

As for that inconsequential fixture… I’ll be watching that from the sofa ! 😀

As opposed to Packard Merlins, you mean?

Flood.

Or even RB211’s 😮

Now that sounds like a photoshop challenge for someone…

LOL – it does seem that FR are looking for shortcuts at every level of their operation, but I hope they don’t take your comment seriously and turn it into a ‘plausible’ cost saving! 😀

If it’s plausible they’ll do it all right. 😮

Rumour has it Michael Ryan was trying to buy that defunct aircraft carrier on e-bay recently, so that he can have a whole new range of UK bases… Margate South, Clacton East, Filey North and Blackpool West !!! 😀

For time table information, consult the shipping forecast. 😀

Does the Lanc have RR Merlin engines ?

Perhaps the steam catapult system they were trying out to make quicker take off times damaged the tail on the way out ? (lol) 😉

Presumably these botched livery resprays are covered by some kind of warranty ? The negative PR effect on the airline must be worth considering ?

A new addition for me too…

Apologies for the image quality in some of the pics, I somehow managed to set the camera to a low resolution setting ?

Lot’s of Ryanair activity as usual, the 732’s are awaiting conversion into coca cola cans unfortunately, one may be utilised as a fire trainer I’m told ?

Great pics, bring back a lot of memories, they have one down here belonging to H.A.R.S in hybrid Qantas livery from the fifties, doing the air show circuit

I think I’ve got a tape somewhere of the documentary of the resoration of that Austrailian Connie Steve. I’ll try and find a copy of it for you. 🙂

The Super Connie will leave Prestwick this Thursday at 11am for Paris-Mulhouse. It’s been announced that they won’t be letting people visit on board at Mulhouse as they need to get the plane ship shape for it’s official arrival in Basle on Saturday.
