There are times at work when you just have to do something different. Yesterday was the day. Pre March 25th we were the smallest handling agent at Manchester, now we are the second largest. Even now we give our up most attention to adhoc and private flights and enjoy the challenges they bring. Yesterday I found out and started my permanent promotion to Flight Operations Supervisor and to celebrate we handled a private 1-11. Granted the 1-11 didn't come in to celebrate my promotion, but it was an amazing end to a fantastic day. I didn't have my camera, but the link below shows some pics.

Thats great news Jetty, well done old son. And I can't believe I missed an opportunity to see a surviving 1-11 visiting my local. Damn!! :brick:

That particular little tinker seems to get almost everywhere these days. What a sight. I'm sure she provided entertainment for all the onlookers.

How long did she stay Jetty? And is she coming back? :think:

Hi Eddie

It doesn't say on the site that she has left......is she still there?

Just a thought.
