    Nice pics, and they look recent too.

    In no particular order, the last one is for Joe( Silver Snapper 😉 )
    The quality is poor, especially when trying to get them under that limit!
    With the FR flights coming I’m hoping to get a better set of pics from the trip. 🙂 Still have to put up with the out-of-date camera though. 😉

    Excellent pics, they also emphasise just how nice and sunny the weather was today. 🙂 Why the semi-regular equipment changes by SAS? Yesterday I see a Star Alliance B738 visited, today an MD, are the loads such that it requires the upgrade occasionally? :confused:

    IIRC it went to Flyjet as G-FJEA, I’ve flown it with both operators. 🙂

    Scrap them why?.Dont be stupid.Even if you hate Ryanair this isnt really a Ryanair matter its the fact that the 200s some of the last claasic airliners will soon be gone.

    I guess Moondance is just being realistic. It’s not the end of the world.
    We managed to cope with the retirement of Concorde( now that was sad 😉 ) I’m sure this’ll be a lot easier to get over 😉 ….

    Kind of makes a mockery of that GLA/EDI argument about not being able to support heavy load long haulers. Are AF sending half empty A343’s out there and how does KLM get a 744 out of there ? I’ve tried it on MS flight sim and I end up in the water every time. :confused:

    KLM B744s head furthur South to Curacao before returning to AMS. So,
    AMS-SXM-CUR-AMS is the routing I think.
