Back from holiday in Mallorca
Posted: 17 Jun 2006, 23:07
Returned today from Palma to East Midlands. Amongst the massed bizjets at Palma was a Budgie! SE-LIB in a not very interesting scheme http://www.airliners.net/open.file/1051715/M/ and with both engine covers open.
Air Slovakia produced a Boeing 737-200 (OM-RAN) with stage 3 converted engines http://www.airliners.net/open.file/1040938/M/
And the Cv990 at Palma looks to be still on its undercarriage, with 4 pods under the wings but the paintwork is slowly being sandblasted. No idea of its condition up close - it is near the military base close to runway 24R threshold. Visible in Google Earth at 39 33 30 N, 2 44 52 E. And in agreement with Garry's comments elsewhere it is the final Spantax livery and from other groups it was also stated to be EC-BZO.
Finally walking away from the EMA terminal around 1600 when a Hunter did a low pass down runway 27, pulled up, completed a few rolls and flew off. Subsequently found out that this was a T7 (WV372) http://www.airliners.net/open.file/1022508/M/
Nice welcome home!
