'Twas the sun!

Ahem.... sorry about that. Let's look at some pictures, eh?:o

Two Eirjet A320s were present, operating for Thomsonfly. This is EI-DIJ.

The weather became pretty grim again by the end of the morning, but I thought you might be interested by this shot of both Eirjet A320s together.

Apparently G-BYAD is out of service after some sort of collision with a catering truck....
Both EirJet 320's passed through BHX a few days ago too operating for BY.

Hope this helps...

Hi all. Nice shots mate. I was up there as well today, but unfortunately my good camera i left at home so I had to use my bad one so excuse poor quality if you can't see a registration or something.

Airsal G-FLTD (i think) made an emergency landing on 24R. If i'd have had the better camera though, this would have been a much better shot.
