Your eyes do not deceive you! In the foreground is "our" US Airways A330 N678US, while in the background is N670UW - US94 diverted from LGW.

Why was the US A330 diverted???
Great pics. It seems the LX Embraer is part of your collection every week.

Neither, Shamrock.

Snow....... You should have drove over from the M65 over Rossendale ! You would have seen snow instead of lanes to drive down first thing this morning !

Any how, just thought I'd add a few from this morning too from the AVP. Including "Our" US A330.

Cheerio.

Did you notice if there were any EI 735s knocking about or is it all A320 now like it is scheduled to be.
