Hi all, Had a very enjoyable day with my old work wingman, although today I was his wingman. He has gained many more flying hours since he took me up as his first passenger around three years ago. We agreed a while ago to get together and go down to Sandown on the Isle of […]
Hi all, I received word that a Russian Piper 46 was inbound to Kidlington on a quick turnaround and so off I set. Imagine my disappointment when I got home and found that I had seen it previously as N600RU at the Aero Friedrichshafen event in 2017. Fortunately OK-FTR was good for me and it […]
Final stop of the day was a very quiet Staverton~Glos. Nothing on the main ramp, nor at the fuel pumps. Never seen that before! Did the usual drive around the public road / area’s of the field. A peek in one of the hangars though the windows from the public road, then a short break […]
A visit here to note the six aircraft that had turned up since my last visit in March. However one that I did not see was EI-FFM Boeing 737 73S C/n 29082 Ex Meridiana/Airitaly. I understand that it was on the North side near to where the BA and 2 x Ex Corsair B747’s were. […]
Hi all, This was our last day in the USA and we still had more Boeing MAX to see! By now it was clear that this might be the last trip away for the foreseeable future and what a trip it was! I was converted to using PlaneBase a few years back and all the […]
Hi all, Penultimate day of our USA MAX bash and we are back in Phoenix. Now this routing might seem strange as we were here a few days earlier, but of course the original plan was to see us spending today at Luke AFB for the airshow. As we knew this had been cancelled just […]
Hi all, Our last day in Seattle saw us revisit all the Boeing sites again. I had been tempted to go to NAS Whidbey Island but I would have wanted to spend a good part of the day there and there were still some other things to do in the general Seattle area. Also as […]
Hi all, After a long day on the road yesterday doing Moses Lake as a day trip, it was now time to turn our attention to aviation around Seattle. I already knew that sitting all day at the airport might get a bit boring after a while as it is very Alaska Airlines heavy and […]
Hi all, Of the overall Boeing MAX hunt, this was the most eagerly awaited day where we would get to see over 200 of them parked up at Moses Lake. I suspect many of us would never have heard of this place before the Boeing facility started being used to relieve the Seattle Boeing fields……how […]
Evening all, Today started clear and cold and was bright but showery for the remainder of the day although not overly warm.
