    Hi,

    of course people can make mistakes! For me it is not so important if two pics have been mixed – it can happen and lots of people will notice that immediately.

    If a whole report like the “Las Palmas”-topic 😉 has got a totally wrong heading, that’s not so simple to realize for everyone.

    Who never has been either to SPC or LPA will possibly not discover this mistake.

    In this case I was so “shocked” because I know La Palma very well and I even made a website about it.

    I just hope, they will correct it in the next edition…

    In my opinion it was probably an error of the corrector – as we have been three times on this nice island La Palma (Airport “Santa Cruz de La Palma”) we often heard things like:

    “Ahhh – you fly to Mallorca” (Palma de Mallorca)
    “Hey, Teneriffa – that’s nice” (Santa Cruz de Tenerife)
    “Gran Canaria – fine island” (Las Palmas)

    So the corrector may have thought: “That’s an error of the writer, he meant Gran Canaria for sure” – and he corrected it without asking the writer – one can see the result in the last edition :p

    Again, that can happen, no probs…

    All the best from Germany again,

    Dietmar

    P.S.: I have been at CDG on Sunday – nice planes there – Tahiti Nui, AF Concorde (probably I have seen her for the last time 🙁 ), China Eastern 340, Emirates 773… Only the weather was awful!!
