Heres my entry for December ,
Air Tahiti A343 F-OJGF powers her way towards the Irish Sea at FL340 bound for LAX & PPT on 27/12/15.
As a self confessed Airbus A340 fan, this is an aircraft i have always hoped to photograph as the livery scheme is one of my all time favorites. The A340 fleet count of Air Tahiti stands at 6,which in itself makes this aircraft quite a rare bird.
A UK spotters Christmas bonus passing visitor from the South Pacific Islands.

Seasons Greetings & Good Luck Everybody.
