I think the 757s still have a role to play for many carriers, including Monarch, given their excellent fuel efficiency, but I think the 787-3 could suit them fine in the future as a replacement if they decide to go with Boeing.

It’s hardly a surprise that G-MOND is in good condition, because Monarch know that the market is competitive and that a rubbish looking aeroplane is not likely to bring back customers time after time. I’m just looking forward to my First Choice 757 flight next week and hopefully, as Tommy said, get a seat forward of the wing to hear the whine of the RB211 engines:).

A very Happy Birthday to you 😀

Excellent shots – shame about the little dust spots on some (i’m sure you know that already 🙂 )

Excellent work. I must give LCY a try one day.

I love the last one in particular. I think, as Futurepilot does, that the 346 is more beautiful than the A380 :).

Where are those flight times taken from?

Monday to Friday, it seems that British Airways departures to Dublin are at 0625hrs, 1035hrs, 1645hrs, 1845hrs and Ryanair departures are at 0810hrs, 1140hrs, 1505hrs, 1545hrs and 1910hrs.

No, you’re looking at the wrong timetable. I’m talking about from Gatwick for the winter.

Great shots mate:).
