:o :o

I think I'd need more than one flypast before I tried landing at Alderney.. I have enough trouble getting the Rapide in there :lol:

As you'd imagine, I was light getting out of and lighter getting in to GUE. Not sure about loading on the 380 but the model I used comes with a pretty full load so I left with 20% L/R mains and all others empty so it was maximum fun for a full ship of pax :lol: My apologies to those parked at the end of the runway. The tyre marks WILL polish out.. honest ;-)

Brooklands you say Brian... :think:
EDIT.. Done that ;-) I do think Alderney is a bit much mind you. The 380's wheel track is wider than the runway :lol:

We keep an eye out for the 380 at Brooklands on Wednesdays with SAL and Emirates being the two most frequent :) Only seen Quantas once since it started ops. SAL leave early lunchtime and we can generally set our watches by Emirates which passes overhead just after 1500hrs ;-)

Cheers, Dave.

I'll take a look.
Don't expect to see the Emirates A380 over Brooklands on Wed 9th Sept. The aircraft is doing the service into Brum. The usual Brum B777-300 is swaping, to do the service into EGLL.
The SAL A380 that I flew on departed EGLL at around 22.30. Is the service now twice daily with an A380 ?

Regards

Kevin

Hey Kevin,

i saw the lunch time SALflight go out yesterday and then another came over my house just after it got dark last night whilst I polished off a pinotage. Not sure if thats a regular thing or not (the A380's that is, not the pinotage).

Cheers
