so a briefish drive from Seething for our rendezvous with Mark (AirbusA320) for a run round Norwich starting with the storage area. I said briefish journey and a word of warning - if your sat-nav isn't up to date it won't show the new northern bypass and you will end up lost - we did. Sat navs don't operate across fields and rivers!
anyway we got there in the end so here's the storage area occupied by several ex Saudia Embraers, an Arik 737 that needs a good clean, 2 Fokker 70s and 3 BAE.146s, I won't post pics of all of them but they are in my Flickr album

thanks Mark and yes I did.
I took over 500 photos during the day at the 6 airfields we visited, took a bit of time to go through them.

Are they all for scrap or just stock ? Nice shots anyway !
Re: Canary country circular tour 19-04-2019, 2nd stage - Norwich
The ex Saudi Embraers are reportedly for scrap. The Fokkers are for rework prior to delivery to a new Australian operator whilst the RJ85s are for storage.
