Cyprus Holiday 25th August to 4th September 2019

[mrbluesky]

Have just returned from a 10 day holiday- mainly non spotting to attend my nieces wedding at the Olympic Lagoon Hotel- at Ayia Napa in Cyprus. I say a non spotting holiday- but managed to sneak in between the festivities- and the drinking and eating and sunbathing an half decent log. 


Like our Lanzarote holiday we used TUI for our flights- G-OBYH 767- on the outbound- and G-FDZS 737-8 on our return yesterday - both were smooth flights- with very little turbulence. Seen on the trip- were the following mostly eastern European countries- the majority which made their approaches into Larnaca right in front of our hotel. Russian and Ukrainian aircraft were flavour of the day, with quite a few- Aeroflot, Pobeda, S7, Rossiya and Ural being seen.

Overflights were very difficult to see almost impossible until the early evening when heat haze burned off- then a few hit the book's. Anyway seen of interest were the following the majority being cops:-
