    Hope to post some from Sri Lanka next summer .

    But as requested, I will try to post some of the special items I spot at the places I go to.

    In February, After a 2 month course on the E-190/195, I found it was time to do my first trip of the year. So I went to AMS.

    Eurolot stopped all operations yesterday, so I was very happy with this one:






    As I also do stored aircraft, I paid another visit to Wetteren, Belgium where there is a B707 and T-33 stored.







    And a few from DUS:




    Built in 1962:

      When did you take this video?

      This has to be A330-343 of AirAsiaX. Registration : 9M-XXM. One thing i didnt understand why D7 kept this plane in White livery for such a long time.

        In Spangdahlem, Germany, the USAF deployed 12 A-10C's due to the crisis in Ukraine. They are planned to stay there until August.
        As these are the only A-10's in Europe, it gave me enough reasons to spend a day over there.
        In total, I spotted 1x KC-135, 2x RCAF F-18's, 14 F-16's, 1x C-17 and 8 A-10's

                  I think it's just paid advertising for EuropCar !

                      UL should do that machan. its important to cater those routes with new birds.

                        True, I notice SriLankan is placing 4R-ALM and 4R-ALN mostly for the LHR route. It's a good decission if they use A333 to destinations where they have better yield. Yesterday SriLankan brought A332 for UL505 and A333 for UL503.

                        It's the way SriLankan operated LHR flights last week.
