    I forgot about these two. Taken with my phone as just after I disembarked EI-DHO at DUB. Probably my best two shots of the day!

    Not quite! 😉 -DLF should have arrived at DUB by now! :diablo:

    Andy

    I should’ve know there would be a newer one by now! After all, it’s been a whole 4 days since DLE was delivered! 😉

    Great shots dude.

    Anyone know what date DLE went into service? It was spotless.

    I have never seen the mechanics under the air brakes shining before!

    Lee

    It’s the newest in the fleet I think, in service 10th Feb 2006!

    Hey guys, it was a good day out. Bit cold at times, but thank god for the hire car as i needed to have a sleep mid afternoon (poor old sod).

    The day made me 15 new frames, so well worth it.

    Looking at a mailing list last night, i saw that a private 74SP was in the hangar with the doors open and a pair of Agean 73’s were in the same area. I never thought of driving around the back (typical).

    Gary and i flew out on DHO and managed to sit in 1A and B thus having a great view of the stewardesses legs. Gary is allededly still sedated in Bolton general.

    When climbing out we saw a Star Air B762F on the cargo ramp. Anyone able to identify this frame?

    Ok then guys, where next? Cologne should be easy enough for most of you??

    Lee

    Another one who got DHO, ok that makes 4 of us I think who flew on DHO at some point throughout the day! lol When you consider how many B738s FR have in their fleet, for all of use who flew them yesterday to only get about 3 different regs must be quite a co-incidence. 😉

    Great shots Tom! I’m not even going to bother posting mine what with all this expensive kit floating around 😀

    Tell me about it! 😀

    No one has mentioned how carp dub spotting is now since they replaced 6 foot fence with a 10 foot fence!!! Still pics possible but only from one small mound that the 10 or so of us just fitted on.

    I’m sure I did, but just incase I didn’t, or you missed it:
    It was extremely annoying! Especially as they left the old fence there so you realised what it could’ve been like, so yes that fence was most inconvenient! 😡

    There we go. 😉

    Nice pics, Mark! But after successfully avoiding a similiar fate the previous day, I’m disappointed to read you managed to send yourself flying the next day. 😉 Glad you you didn’t injure yourself too badly though!

    Guess you’re never safe behind the camera. 😉

    AHHHHHHH!! Oh the horror. Did you not take another? Maybe one where I’m not laughing at nothing looking like a ****. :p

    Super pics, Tom! Great to see a photo of an aircraft departing that I am actually on. 😀

    We left a bit late, 15-20mins or so, yet arrived 5mins early. Maybe if we’d left on time then 28 would still have been in use. Of course that A pier is so damn cramped I failed to notice that it had ever changed anyway. :rolleyes:

    Does anyone know if 27s were in use at LHR yesterday? If not I’m sure Dan wouldn’t of been too happy, especially after the ‘shock’ of getting MIDH. 😉

    No mate, I was on DHO going out.

    Typical T.Boy **** up? Whatever do you mean? :rolleyes:

    T.Boy

    You got DHO? I had DHO back to EDI. Dear oh dear, so many B738s, so little variety! 😉

    Great pics. It was a good day. myself,Tom and Stuart were discussing the possibilties of a meet somewhere on the continent over the summer maybe even for a weekend.

    So if anyone has any suggestions let us know.

    Yeah, as much as I like the look of Zurich it’s not the easiest/cheapest of places to get to from EDI…
    But something over a Saturday/Sunday could be a good idea…

    I know, I think Dan was on the left of his plane as well! You’re right about the first FR fight being late. Next time I’ll have to look into getting to MAN and getting an earlier flight!

    Paul

    Yeah he was, 26A I think it was…

    Cheers for the great day everyone, I got an Emerald ATP and a Euromanx Dornier 328 back home today so I’m dead chuffed 😀

    Now there’s an interesting mix! 🙂

    Nice pics, Paul. It’s a shame that the LBA flight arrives so late! FR should really do something about that, can’t believe they changed the runway just before I departed too! I didn’t actually realise until we were pushing back, with me deliberately sat on the left so I could see you lot. :rolleyes:
    That new fence was a ******* too. 😡
