    Classic colour scheme on the SAS 767. Looks absolutely great. If that house wouldn’t have been knocked down, I’d have put an offer in for it! 😉

    Good choice Kabir!

    lol, it’s like a radio show with all these requests. I’ll shoot anything that is not commonly seen at Heathrow. Long haul Asian, American and African heavies especially. I want to catch a glimpse of Thai if possible. Arriving at about 5:30pm I believe and also a flight departing at 11:50am.

    I thought Britannia was pretty much no-frills already. 🙂

    I think Wysiwyg and skycruiser will have something to say about that, up and out! 😉

    Oh no 😮

    What’s the plan now? I was telling Andrew (A330Crazy) that I’m going to be getting a later train which won’t get me to Hatton Cross until about 11:30am.

    The reason for this is the prices. I have a railcard which cannot be used before 10am. Also, before 10am, the prices of train tickets are 50% more being peak time. So for a train before 10am, I’ll have to pay £18.40 return(!!) and after 10am will be just £8.50 return.

    Kev, you’ll think you had been there with us when you see my photos! lol, never really done it before, so don’t hold your hopes up! :p

    It’s not going to be exceptional service at such small prices. But as for bringing down the parent airline, I can’t see that happening. “Go”, now easyJet, never caused any harm to British Airways when it was set up, nor has bmiBaby affected BMI British Midland in any way.

    I don’t like it.

    But a logo shouldn’t, in my opinion, represent the airline, but the airline’s country.

    Brilliant, this what I suggested Boeing build instead of the 7E7, looks great.

    There is no doubt that despite the heavy emphasis on “please do not remove this card from the aircraft”, safety cards have become a highly collectable item

    A quote from Airliner World October 2003. A special double spread about safety cards.

    I’ve noticed that the ones I have removed from the aircraft say they are not to be removed. If I would have known this at the time, I wouldn’t have taken them… honest! 😀

    Great photos, Kev. The sunsets look brilliant.

    As for the Uzbekistan 767 you’re mentioning, Future Pilot, it’s a top notch colour scheme and a great aircraft, too, don’t you think? 😀

    In the way of safety cards:

    Qatar Airways A330-200
    Qatar Airways A300-600
    Excel Airways B737-800
    Airtours B767-300
    Airtours A330-200
    British Midland A320 (old)

    and a couple of others which don’t spring to mind at the moment!

    Also some blankets (!!) which are ideal for covering the budgie of a night-time and a set of small Thai Airways glasses.

    Also got loads of magazines from the airlines.

    Very good bunch. I think Birmingham is probably the only airport in the country to offer such as assortment of aircraft… international carriers like Emirates and some US carriers, British aircraft of all shapes and sizes and charters, too! 😉

    I think meals on shorter flights i.e. those under 2 or 2.5 hours should not be served meals. Snacks should be sold to those who do get hungry during the flight, but fill up on fast food at the airport and you won’t be hungry for a few hours, so meals aren’t necessary. When you’re flying for hours on end, you need something (included in the price) to keep you going.
