Re: Plane Spotters Corner

I so want to be on that beach one day.
Apparently the bar next to the beach has a board up that has all the arrivals so you know when the next jet is coming in.

Big slap on the wrist for the BBC.

Airbus A350-900 entered service in 2007?

Not a bad feat considering it was only just on the drawing board!

Re: Plane Spotters Corner

Wow!
That is one great photo.
I don't think I'd like to land at that airport actually if it's amidst all those buildings.

Hom3r, how are things up at EMA at the moment by the way?
Seen anything nice fly in lately?

Any here around the Newbury area?

Look up in the sky about at 3:10pm tomorrow afternoon and you might just see XH558!
