EU Summit in Malta

Following on from Mario's earlier excellent post, here's a few of those hidden away. If you don't like biz jets, look away now ;) Although I've added some other recent airliner bits & pieces. All taken with a point and shoot so apologies if not pin sharp. https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/754/3269066686...

Apologies for the poor quality of photo's but security is tight and they've constructed screens around the perimeter road. Ironically, the subject Herc is Uga...

Malta in May

Catching up with some editing so thought I'd share some highlights from Malta in May. All taken with a point and shoot so not as sharp as I'd like them. Hope you like them :D https://c1.staticflickr.com/8/7442/26762350152_3b5c32cb7b_k.jpg https://c2.staticflickr.com/8/7037/26788505121_3f8b66eaf2_k.j...
