I agree totally with you Nigel. Didnt look any different to ones I have seen before and it sounded identicle to a 744 when it landed.

I'm still a huge fan of the galaxy. But i have to say i'm very disappointed with the new engines and the lack of noise! No whine anymore. But still worth every bit!!

Nice shots Gareth and Matthew!

Would love to get out there for its departure myself, but after having two days off recently driving my Father for eye surgery, its a bit hard to have another one so soon.


Cheers,
Jeff.

I was very lucky to be where I was when it departed as it departed much earlier than the usual Reach departure on Tuesdays:

Is inbound again for RWY 10.

Contacting approach now.

I haven't been seeing it on PP today but it did appear yesterday. Is this due to the sbs users equipment or the aircraft?
