    Hi Andrew,

    I did have a look a couple of hours ago at the many Internet Flight Trackers I know and none of them were providing any data for what I discovered to be your dad’s flight; VS603.

    Sorry :rolleyes:

    Great model, Andy.

    You should brag about your latest buy on ebay – the A380! 🙂

    Thanks for photographs, Graham. As far as I am aware, the Islandsflug 737-400 is on lease (?) to another airline. Rumour suggests that I’ll be on one in 3 weeks and 3 days instead of a Ryanair 737-800.

    It’s closed and not likely to open again. As with Gatwick, I understand the views there are very poor now and that is to close in the coming weeks. 🙁

    I sat on a Britannia 757 not long ago, had the worst seats possible. Dont get the ones which are opposite the toilets in the middle. They have smaller legroom than all the other seats, dont know why! They also get the smells from the toilets. My dad had to move seats because he wouldnt fit in, and hes only 6 feet tall!

    That cannot be possible. Britannia offer just 28 inches of seat pitch to economy passengers. 28 inches is the smallest pitch permitted in the UK. Some seats having less than this would not be allowed.

    I’m still waiting for my Continental 767-400 on the 1:500 scale. It should be with me any day now! 😀

    Heathrow haven’t got one, why should Newcastle? :confused:

    It’s a good site, A380! One criticism I will make is the clash between the bright blue font on the slightly darker blue background – you should change one of them.

    I don’t think advertising your site here is the best option either. I have put many hours into http://www.web-wings.co.uk/ and very few people even looked at it or provided feedback. Not surprisingly, I was quite disappointed.

    But keep up the good work. I’ll put a link on my site for you in the coming days.

    By the way, can you please respond to my PM sent to you weeks ago reference the 17th February? Thanks 🙂

    I use the next one up from you I think. Mine is the same specifications but my S304 by Fuji is 3 megapixels.

    That’s exactly what I mean, Kev 🙂 Excellent colour scheme and excellent aircraft!

    I’ve always liked the Uzbekistan Airways colour scheme, but it just doesn’t look good on this aircraft. Put it on the 767-300 and it looks a million times better!

    According to the Kuoni “Tropical Sun” 2004 brochure, flights from Gatwick to Holguin, Cuba, are operated by a Cubana A330! I think this may be a terrible typing error because they mean Monarch Airlines! :confused:
