Sounds like it.. there’s been one doing the rounds across Europe and to Shannon mainly this past year or so. It visited PIK last year a couple of times.

In the current livery…

There’s a BA cargo centre at Glasgow Airport, unfortunately I was down there yesterday with the Canon 10D and found it almost impossible to get any shots thanks to the construction of the new Terminal 2.

I’ll ask some of my Prestwick friends if they’ve anything useful or you could try mailing Fred Seggie via his site http://www.saap.co.uk he shoots on a Canon D60.

I can supply you with large j-peg’s or shoot some RAW’s of BA planes operating out of GLA if you wish, the cargo activitity tends to be mainly of the mail and newspaper variety and on the Highlands and Islands routes.

The problem with commuting using staff travel is that it is on a standby basis with another company. this makes you very low priority to get onboard what can be very busy flights. Not being there is not an option.

Don’t some airlines use their own or chartered planes for staff travel? I’m thinking of the unfortunate aircraft that crashed at GLA carrying Airtours staff to ABZ. Not a good example I know but it was the first time I’d heard of this method of moving staff between airports other than on the actual airliners.

Do you mean the best PTV’s technically or the ones with the best variety of things to watch ?

I like the ones that let you switch between whatever TV stuff they have, external camera views, the flight technical info and route map.

There’s an exhaust port on the starboard side of the fuselage just under the tail.

EDIT: you can just make it out in your second photo Allen, notice the hole with the blackening around it, just above the registration on the right side of the fuselage.

I thought that must be it, cheers Sandy. You can see it more clearly in this shot…
