    Varies per person

    Maybe I’d believe you if you used examples of cars that actually exist… 😉

    I feel some pictures coming on…. 😉

    1) Merc C220-CDI Avantgarde. Going in a month though. 🙁 Only a couple of months old.

    2) Merc CLS-55 AMG. We have this one for the weekends. 😉 :diablo:

    fancy meeting up?

    Not really… NO! Just joking! 😉 Like I said in my first post I’m not sure if I’ll have the time, well, I’m not sure yet anyway, so it might be just a wee bit short notice… 😉 But I’ll let you know.

    Reminds me of a vase… EDIT: How rude of me, nice shots mate!

    LOL, so polite. 😉 Reminds me of a chess piece….
    I’m hoping I’ll be able to head back out on Monday afternoon….

    Shots look promising anyway, good job 😀

    They’re suffering abit from compression to get them under the forum limit. 😉

    Tower is well impresive. What other developments going on at the moment at EDI?

    Work on the new terminal extension starts next month. Should bring an extra 6 contact stands I think it is. Where the remote stands are just now to the South East.

    I personally think it looks very impressive, especially from close up. Not sure why they felt the need to make it ‘stripy’ though?

    Sorry, I thought GSM still leased some B737QC’s

    EK is wrong, OSH is right. There are still some connections.

    What did you decide to get in the end, RIP?

    In the end, the Olympus C-765. 😎

    Excellent pics! It’s taken a while to decide, but my new camera has finally arrived today! 😀

    Excellent pics! They are such superb quality from the Z10, plus some masterful editing too? 😉 If I can end up with shots even close to this quality with my new camera once I’ve got the hang of it, then I will be very, very pleased. 😀

    Im staying in Kalamaki, in the Dennys inn, leaving on the 26th May from LGW for a week. My camera isnt that great, it is a Kodak DX6490, it has 10x optical zoom and 4MP. I would love to get myself a Canon 300D or Nikon 70D but im afraid I cannot aford it with only being 17, still got school to worry about, must try to save!!
    I will go look for those threads now, thanks for the response guys!

    10x optical should do just fine for shots from the beach. 😀 Kalamaki is great, just watch out for the kamikazee bikers! 😮

    Great choice! I loved Zante, my favourite Greek Island, but I don’t think I’d advise taking pics, I can’t remember exactly what the situation is like there, but there might have been signs up on the fence saying not to? However, you don’t really have to be by the airport to get pics if you have a good camera, just go to the beach! 😀
    I just remember finding a little remote spot very close to the runway, and with a Slovak Tu154 taking off, deafening! 😀 No camera though.

    That would have been at 11:41, RIP. 🙂

    I use a Minolta A200 these days, BHXlocal.

    Hmm, so it wouldn’t have been heading to EDI at that time I don’t think, but it was certainly in from and back to BHX later in the afternoon.

    Nice pics, at what time, roughly, did you catch G-BVZI?
