    I wouldn’t recommend Dublin.

    It’s a great airport, but its nothing too special. If you’re close to Stansted, stick to that. You’re going to get barely anything but Ryanair and the occasional Aer Arann ATRs and Aer Lingus Airbus’ and Boeings.

    The traffic becomes really tedious after an hour or two.

    The main reason is to try and get on a 732, I’d only be spending a few hours spotting.

    I wouldn’t say 757’s are out of the question, I flew on a 737 their last year! Was slightly concerned when I saw a 737 at the gate, was the very least I had expected to take me there! But as regards to your question, sorry I wouldn’t know the answer.

    What’s the big facination about these 732’s. They’re old, noisy and in need of a good clean 😡

    I’d rather see 738’s at LPL & MAN.

    Just so in a few years time when they are all rotting in scrap yards, and our only chances of flying on one will be in central Africa, I can atleast say ‘I’ve flown on one’. Also just the experience, flying is becoming too relaxed and quiet for my liking!

    Bit of a bummer! Most of my school also have mocks on that date, but I’m the lucky one and don’t do any of the subjects that fall on that date. Then the day after it’s the same case, so I break up for xmas a few days early 😀

    Nice set of shots Andy, just gotta remember to keep at it. Very challenging day for photos I can imagine. I remember this being the very first photo I took with the new camera, bearing in mind I’d been practicing with certain features at home, and weather was very good 😮 Amazing how quick you can improve!

    Will look forward to seeing who else can make it. On another note (maybe someone who knows better about MAN, or Bmi) do you have an idea why my flight is arriving at Terminal 1 on the Friday from LHR, then departing from Terminal 3 on the Sunday?

    Excellent shots there. Eventhough Titan are based down here, I cant get bored of their livery. Also love that sky on the Bmi 330 shot. What camera are you using?
