newforest …. better to be lucky than rich ?? my mother used to say this ! I never really believed it though !!
Mike … yes I think the modern saying is ‘old school’ … mmmmmm !
Keith 😎
Why Thank You Newforest, you are a man with good taste !!
Keith 😀
This airframe is doing regular, training I assume, flights over the last couple of days ! …. So a photo from this evening …..
Keith 🙂

Yes I quite agree Newforest …. two other Jet2 colour schemes and they choose this one again ?????
KLM Engineering is a large part of KLM/Air France ….. I think it is actually KLM UK Engineering having three hangars here at Norwich doing a lot of work on the KLM F70, B737 and a lot of third party work also !

Thanks for those kind words J Boyle ….. Sorry I can’t answer your question ! …. hopefully someone who can will be along soonest ??
Keith 🙂
Today marked the first flight following delivery, a few ILS approaches and a trip to Humberside and back to Norwich, the crew of three seemed reluctant to stop ‘having fun’ with their new toy !! …. couple of photos ….
Keith 🙂


Ah thanks for that insight 225driver ! very interesting and as Newforest said welcome to the forum.
Thanks also to glens45 for those kind words ! sorry its a little late !!
Keith 🙂
Thanks Newforest ! A mere spring chicken for them !! at only 12 years old !! The Black Magic is in the post …. Honest !
Keith 😎
Thank you all for your input ! To continue …. This aircraft arrived on 12 April seemingly for work with KLM Engineering, as many Jet2 aircraft do, it left on 14 April for Bournemouth, I am told, for paintwork ! thus not taking advantage of the Air Livery paint shops here at Norwich ??
The latest Jet2 arrival, still here, also seemingly with KLM Engineering, arrived a few days later G-GDFY formerly HA-LKE with Travel Service in an eye catching all over white colour scheme bearing the new British registration ! Stale easter egg for the first person to show the age of this one 😎
Keith 🙂
trumper ! yes I too hope it survived ! but it was looking a little weak when we found it !! and yes guys we also thought it was a tiny shark !!
Keith 🙂
Thanks charliehunt ! Yes have had the same answer from another forum ! Thank you again !
Keith 🙂
Happy Easter Newforest ! Do you mean where do I get registration details ?? From CAA website called G-INFO !!
Keith 🙂
Very interesting Newforest ! At the moment it is outside a KLM engineering hangar ….. so who knows its future ??? will keep you posted !!
Keith :very_drunk:
Thanks Mike ! As I pre-date it by three years it’s nice to think I may be historic ? but more often …. hysteric !!
Keith 🙂
This evening I ‘managed’ to get a photo of G-CIEC landing at 09 end of runway ….. white aircraft ….. grey sky …… not good !
Keith 🙂
