Autumn at St Athan

Post by welshdan1927 » Mon Nov 26, 2018 5:53 pm

Hello all,

As you may have seen it's been a busy few months down here at Saints, Cardiff Aviation have had a fair bit of work with Corendon, TUI and others, and eCube have been phenomenally busy bringing in all sorts of goodies.

I'll start with the well publicised retirement of the BA 767s

So sad to see all of these wonderful aircraft at the end of their lives, we can't keep them all in museums I suppose. :(

That is an interesting selection, particularly the Etihad A319.
