Update:- Bank holiday spent with my sister & her hubby who live quite near LHR. I left on Sat 29th May and paid a short visit to Fairoaks on my way there, my first for many years, where I noted:- PC12 G-KARE, ERGP; Be200 G-PCOP; Ce150 G-BMVB; Be55 G-EKTN; PA28 2-YELL. Then to Ashford where, for the first time I bagged an LHR departure - B747 G-CLAA.
30th May: I was taken to a place of LHR inbounds, a park in Stanwell Moor. This gave me my first UK A350s, Courtesy of Virgin G-VDOT & VLUX (BA didn't oblige) However, I did get one of BA's newer B777s G-STBO & NEO A321s G-NEOP, NEOV & NEOW & A320 G-TTNM. Here are some of the non-UK highlights for me. Though I bagged it many moons ago, I did enjoy Herky bird 7T-VHL; Full marks to Japan for sending in two good'uns, my first JAL B787-9 JA868J & ANA for B777 JA794A; Likewise Swiss for my first A340 HB-JMI & CS100 (A220 if you prefer) HB-JBD; Qatar for B787-10 A7-BHE & two good B777s A7-BAY & BEG; Emirates B777 A6-EGW & A380 A6-EOT, along with Etihad's A6-BMH. Two Chinese crackers were China Eastern A330 B-6537 & Hainan B787 B-1133; Aeroflot A330 VP-BDE, I do miss the RA- reggies on Aeroflot aircraft; and finally a Turkish delight B777 TC-JJI.
31st May: Back to reality. Seen after I returned home to sunny Aldershot:- SR22 G-SRZZ; Ce150 G-BZEB & bo207 G-EFTE.
