Stansted evening cargo ops, 24-06-2020

Post by andygolfer » Thu Jun 25, 2020 6:26 am

a warm evening of summer arrivals including the return of the IL.76 for the third time. This is the time of year when the UPS 767 arrives in daylight and last evening it chose the perfect time...

Your shots came out great from your vantage point.

I did see the UPS 767 on its way, but decided not to stick around as it was still about half an hour out and I have no affection for the 767. I didn't notice another MD-11 inbound though.
