7/7/18
TAP A332 CS-TOI was a nice gap-filler on its visit to LHR, AMI KC767 MM62229 was the pick of the OTTs, and it was nice to catch up with Cheyenne OE-FDS at Bkackbushe.

The Silk Way IL76 4K-AZ100 at FAB was my pick, although I must admit to preferring the original-engined versions - more smoke, noise, environmental damage - that sort of thing!
Same thing applies to KC-135s, DC-8s etc...

Another hot one at work this morning- but a bit of cloud cover this afternoon and the wind picking up again made things a little bit more bearable and landing on 05 at Manchester made the world a better place. In addition to the two seen at Manchester seen OTT were:- AM (Before Work) N650NB- G650 heading south and trailing PM (After Work) N271UP- MD11 UPS heading east short trail N38NG- G550 southbound nice trail Happy days Bob
