    Nice to see G-MIDK and G-EUPV, I’ve been on each of them 🙂

    Excellent shots!

    This is Flight Simulator 2004 and by wing view, I mean/meant that when I push numbers 4 and 6 on my number keypad, I get views of the whole of the wing, instead of pushing 1 and 3 to look back towards it.

    I agree, it looks absolutely superb, as does any a/c in the new Monarch scheme.

    Dont get Elgans point about it looking like an A300, looks nothing like one to me!

    The 767 and the A300 are both great looking aircraft, but I’d never confuse the classy 767 for being an A300. And I agree, that Monarch colour scheme looks just as good on that 767 as it does on any other aircraft… well, almost 😉

    You’ve really got to admire First Choice Airways for being the first charter airline to make this move. If I were jetting off on a long-haul holiday, I would always want to fly with the scheduled carriers, but First Choice Airways and its new long haul product would almost certainly make me think again.

    33″ of seat pitch is very impressive. I know EVA Air had the same in their Economy Class and it was ample. Compared to Thomson, which offers a dismal 28/29″, its great.

    I’ve seen so much of that Monarch 767 recently and I’m still not tired of seeing it. It’s one amazing looking machine with a fantastic colour scheme. Certainly looks better than what it did three years ago when I flew on it – it was in a Garuda/Airtours hybrid and the interior was looking slightly tatty.

    I have to agree with the above comments. An absolutely excellent assortment of photographs. My only disappointment is that you didn’t post anymore! 🙁

    Ah well I used SDQ a few years ago and will be using POP (Puerto Plata) this summer and was just wondering if flights still use SDQ. So guesing its just Punta cana, Puerto Plata and La Romana for charters in the Dominican Republic?

    I’ve been to Puerto Plata twice now (once with Monarch, once with jmc) and its a nice airport. I’ve also been to La Romana with Britannia and that is one great little airport. Its so tiny and I remember it only having enough space for two or three large jets at any one time. The terminal is very small and wooden, although it looks very nice and new from the outside. The departure lounge has one small shop and a coffee shop.

    I remember when I first went to the Dominican Republic back in 1999 with Monarch Airlines, the flight routed LGW-POP-SDQ-LGW. I don’t know if they still do though.

    Flying time from the North to the South was only 20 minutes or thereabouts, so the seatbelt sign was on all the way. We stopped in Santo Domingo for a good 90 minutes and were not allowed off of the aircraft.

    I’ll definitely be up for it and I expect A330Crazy would be, too, but he’ll just need to confirm that. 🙂

    I’ve only recently started to used IFDG aircraft. The 767s are great and the A319s are great. It’s just the A320s I have the problems with.

    I wouldn’t have thought Moscow. I haven’t a clue but I’ll take a stab in the dark at Macau, simply because of the taxiway that goes over the water.

    Excellent photos. That First Choice A321 is quite something. 🙂

    Michael, have you looked at Jet2 from LGW? £71.00 return on the 1st and last flights of the day.

    Thanks LBARULES, I did spot that one earlier but knowing that if you book well enough in advance, a flight can be booked for £30 return, I’m not sure I want to spend that much.

    Looks like I’ll have to get a few extra hours at work and plan for a trip later in the year. Hopefully some of you who cannot make this one next week will be able to come along in a few months.
