    Hi,

    Great photos! 🙂

    I noticed something in your other thread with the scanned ‘nostalgia’ photos that I meant to mention … in the third photo, with the BA plane in the foreground , …. check out the STAIRS!! 😮 Somehow I doubt they would get past the Health & Safety chaps these days! :rolleyes:

    At Male, we had an hour’s wait before catching an Emirates A330 to Colombo in Sri Lanka, for our return flight back to Heathrow.

    The first 2 photos are taken at the seaplane ‘depot’.

    A SriLankan A320 came in while we were sitting in the transfer bus waiting to cross the runway. 😮

    The last 2 photos are taken from the SriLankan A340 somewhere over the Middle East, flying at 36000 feet.

    These are some photographs taken out of the window on the way back to Male from the island … the window had a few drops of water on it (as you might expect 😀 ) hence the reason for a slight blurring on a couple of them.

    This is probably my favourite photograph … the standard ‘safety’ sign beside the pool about life-guards etc. – but then you read point 4 in the ‘Beach’ section! 😮

    I flew back into Glasgow last night from Bristol about 20.45 with Easyjet. We taxied past both Yak’s, and parked up right next to the 737. Unfortunately I didn’t have my camera with me 😡

    What I can tell you is that the 737 was absolutely gleaming, he must booked an optional full-valet with his plane-parking fee … 😀

    Excellent programme, thoroughly enjoyed it!

    It was nice to see some airport staff that actually seemed to go out of their way to help people! 🙂

    As for Mt Travolta’s 707 … beautiful!

    Even the drawer with the cutlery in it was awesome. Don’t think I’d like to be the cleaner, though!! 😮

    They also have 12 A380’s on order, so yes they are leaning towards the Airbus product for their long haul fleet

    Qantas Airways has signed a preferred nomination letter with CAE for its A380 training requirements. The purchase is subject to final agreement and envisages the airline taking delivery of an A380 full-flight simulator in June 2006, as well as two training devices. The 12 x A380 aircraft are on order for delivery between 2006 and 2011.

    … such as this shot taken last year.

    Also, I absolutely loved the Emirates shots Ren , just a pity the weather wasn’t up to scratch!

    I’m almost certain that it’s a Plymouth Prowler (see below). Very nice car indeed …. not that Scotland has the right kind of weather for it! 😀
