By the way, when I was at the airport pub before watching the amazing landings a British airways Avro got in much trouble and had to do a go around. It was the closest I've ever been to a Go around, pics will be on next week. Good work Grey!

Excellent Grey!
The bmi 135 looks much smaller there that i've seen it LOL!
It was one hell of a morning (floods and power cuts here), with my Brother supposed to go to CDG from LPL, but all early moring flights there were cancelled due to the winds!

The New BMI livery suits the EMB135 really well

1) Embraer 135ER G-RJXL - British Midland's latest.
Is this a new livery for them or a new airplane?

Hi,
Some great shots there! :)
What was the cause of the Emirates diversion to LHR. Too windy to land?
Flex 35

Im pretty sure that was the reason.

A new aeroplane, Whiskey Delta.
From whom did they aquire the -135?
By: - 8th January 2005 at 20:50 Permalink - Edited 1st January 1970 at 01:00
It is an ex-Jetmagic aircraft.
By: - 8th January 2005 at 20:53 Permalink - Edited 1st January 1970 at 01:00
Yes, Flex 35 - the aircraft diverted after a 3rd missed approach.
All 3 approaches were pretty "adventurous".
The flight finally arrived at MAN at 15:18 or thereabouts.
Oh, and green320 is spot-on with G-RJXL. It's c/n 145376, ex EI-LCY of JetMagic.

Well, it was blowing a bit this morning! Some very interesting landings indeed. :diablo:
1) Embraer 135ER G-RJXL - British Midland's latest.
2) Fokker 70 OE-LFL in the Austrian Arrows scheme.
3) B777 AP-BGK of PIA with an ominous sky behind.
4) B767-400 N66057 of Continental. No more B777s for a while now.
5) B777-300 A6-EMQ of Emirates deciding that discretion is the better part of valour and diverting to LHR.
6) At last, a decent picture of B767 E3-AAO of Eritrean Airlines!
7) Another one of OE-LFL, this time pushing back from B pier on Terminal 1.
Enjoy. :D
