Nice one Culpano ! I think some of my ‘football loving’ friends would like to see your table ? ….. but thats just another ball game :diablo:
Keith :rolleyes:
A couple more from the day, localy based ‘yellow helos’ doing their thing in the setting sun …. an excuse to try my newly purchased photobucket pro account …. does it mess up the photos as the free account seemed to ?????
Keith 🙂


Hi Kev and Moggy ! Yes that aspect of the registration was discussed at length ‘on the fence ‘ at Norwich Saturday morning and many many alternative names for the airframe were proposed …. none of which will be published here !!
Oh OK then …. what about …. bog standard 757 !
Keith 🙂
Another of the varied exhibits at Volandia …. AMX I believe ??

Thank you EGTC ! I rather assume the ‘flap’ is just a cover for access to the actual oil level dip stick / oil filler cap area ??

Difficult choice for me also, the freighter was my first ever flight , a school trip from Southend to Selsey Bill and return .. 1955 I think ?
As for the Carvair … Well I lived at Stansted and saw every one of the 19 built there …. most arrived as very sad looking former USAAF C-54’s etc and after what seemed like weeks of work emerged as ‘Carvairs’ … My most enduring memory of those times is of the seemingly endless days they all seemed to spend on the apron doing engine runs ?? after conversion ??
So my vote is for one of each ….. Please !!
Keith 🙂
AA your views are backed up by others ! A D.9 but who knows what powerplant ?
Meanwhile a few more from the day !
Keith 🙂

The buildings, original Caproni, are supurb !

Another recent arrival ….

Very nice indeed ! A slimmed down Blue Panorama ? and G-BWWT my Manchester taxi ! You are so lucky to have so many movements in such a short time !!
I was at NWI for about the same period today and we had …. maybe 10 fixed wing and 20 rotary’s in and out !!
Keith 😎
Newforest ! :diablo: The answer to both of your questions is ‘I don’t know’ …. most people on the trip seemed to have reasonable questions !! and the little yellow thing ? well I rather think it looks too neat for a Turbi ….. but what do I know as I never read placards ??
A better view for you ….
Keith 😀

Thanks guys ! Yes I think I would go back again but with more time for photography ??
A few more random photos …. looking up …. looking down …. looking sideways !
Keith 🙂




Thanks guys for that ! A couple of the A310’s that are becoming so rare with pax on board …..
Keith 🙂

Thanks Matt ! Yes I have several shots of the Blue Pan thing but I too liked that unusual view ??
It seems Monarch Manchester and Myself get on well together ??
Keith 😉
Thank you Alberto ! These photos were all taken following a trip to Malpensa … inside the control tower and Volandia Museum …. many more photos to come very soon …..

Thanks to all for your nice comments it makes me smile !
Matt thanks for the terminal correction, I was shuttling between all three and constantly not knowing where I was …. mmmm
Culpano, the Titan arrived at 15:35 hrs on Sunday and left at 16:18 …. I enjoyed seeing a pair of Transat A310s carrying pax there as well !
For you Titan / 757 lovers another of it leaving …. you see I do requests 😉
Keith 🙂

Nice set Culpano ! I too have a couple of cards full of photos from the 13th floor etc from today and yesterday …. only just home from Man …. will make a thread very soon containing my ‘iffy’ collection !!!
