Any update on this Mike?

The other two flights on FA due tonight (N77D Gulfstream & N152FJ Falcon 50) are already down as airbourne, however the Hercules is still 'Scheduled'.

But saying that strange things do happen on FA sometimes. Wrap up warm if you venture out later, we don't want you catching a cold :D

Hopefully I'll get some shots of her tomorrow - the wife wants to go to Lossie to see the Scampton Darts Team - I'll drop into Inverness Airport on the way back :D

It landed at 11.50 this morning and I'm afraid this was the best I could get when I got there later...............

I've heard it's here for 4 weeks and has something to do with the filming of the new Batman movie. :unsure:

Let's hope the filming is more accurate than 'the dark knight' . If I remember a Herc turned into a Provider in the space of a few seconds :lol:
