2-TBXU Updated to Red Wings c/s Today.
This aircraft arrived at Norwich, from Tolmachevo Airport Russia, mid morning whilst I was busy with a project ! .... But luckily it was left sitting at stand six until I arrived early evening and following some luck with movement of ground equipment this is the best I could get ..... at the moment I have no idea why it's here .... but no doubt all will be revealed later ?????

Re: 2-TBXU Olympus Airways A321 Today.
As a little aside .... Whilst Kevin and I were waiting to get our photos of the A321 we got a very friendly wave from the captain delivering a KLM E190 for maintenance ....

Well this aircraft is still at Norwich having been parked in the storage area for some time ... today it was towed across to a stand near the apron ... seemingly just for fuel and then returned to storage ...
