Re: Canadian Ramblings 3 Fraser River & Coal Harbour

Lovely set.

11yrs since I was there, The Harbour Air HQ at Fraser River is great place to relax on a summer's evening - nice bar and restaurant too.

Re: Prestwick Nostalgia

Excellent set.

A lot of very familiar aircraft in that set, including the ex Aer Lingus MD-11.

Didn't realise FedEx MD-11s wore the lovely blue scheme.

Re: A good Friday at Dublin

Cheers lads.

My first visit of the year, Paul. Only went down for the Jet Airways. I was told the An-12 was to leave on Sunday, then it was changed to 14.00 on Friday and at 12.50 she called up to do.

Regards

Sporting Specials

A tread to show some of the various aircraft advertising sporting events and teams. With the Rio Olympics and Euros in France this summer, its a fair assumption that there'll be a few more to be unveiled later this year.

Lovely set.

Another vote for the second Etihad A330 but the Flybe is my favourite.

Looking through my flickr page for suitable "smoking shots" I came across some An-12s shots so I decided to start a thread looking a back at the Soviet workhorse.

Re: Smoking Permitted

Andy, never understood why they insisted on painting the An-12s white, anyone who can remember the Balkan cubs know that a clean one was nearly as rare as hens teeth.
