Hi guys,
Whilst working today, I was airside (naturally!) and saw two very unusual visitors.
What made me smile was the contrast between the two aircraft.
Firstly a tatty and tired looking Hungarian An-26 freighter (HA-LCN). And a very smart and clean Royal A109 (ZR321).
Sorry for the picture quality but I only had my Motorola 2.0MP camera phone to hand.


I suffer from paranoid amnesia. I can't remember who I don't trust.

Did the A.109 pick up HM after she climbed out the back of the Antonov??

That's a nice looking GPU next to the An-26. I wonder if it's 28v
I thought the 109 looked like a Police helicopter!

I went round the back of the Antonov which has just emptied its cargo. There were lots of Hungarian crew scratching theirs heads.
Not sure why if came in to be honest. Maybe even a diversion.
I also thought the 109 was a Police one at first. Looks very much like an old school Police livery.
