Silkway IL.76 Stansted 26-08-2017

The Silway IL.76 finally got here just after 10am after several delays. Up with the owls to check FR24 this morning and the light improved a lot in time for it's arrival where I met wiggy (Denis) so I was able to put another face to a name (nice to meet you Denis) anyway here are some pics of a superb looking aircraft!

Nice to meet you today Andy. I enjoyed our chat while we waited. Loving Stansted's recent love-in with the IL-76!
