Stansted's latest new airline 01-07-2021

I popped over on Thursday evening to get some photos of the PLAY A321 neo. The Icelandic airlines only started services a week ago. I can say it's my favourite scheme by a long way and the sun going behind cloud ruined the evening light for me, here we are anyway (don't look at it when you've had a skin full!)...

Nice colour scheme, but not necessarily the best.
As an aside, love the B767 with winglets. Looks very sleek.

Nice scheme of the Play 321, too bad the sun didn't want to cooperate.

Any obvious pattern to the Ryanair 737Max arrivals at Stansted to make a visit worthwhile, please?

None yet I'm afraid. There are only 2 based at STN so far, one came from Dublin a couple of days after it's delivery flight whereas the other was at STN about 6 days after delivery (I believe thaat was actually the first to be delivered). A third one arrived last week as wekk but hasn't surfaced at STN yet
