A double abomination! Not only is it Boeing but worse, it's Ryanair! :lol:

Nice shots though Nige ;) With winglets like that, I'd have been less surprised to see Southwest :lol:

The embarrassing question is.. were you actually flying it or following closely in your 1-11.. or just an innocent spotter admiring the ambient light *-)

Flying it... Having access to Eurocontrol, it gives me the opportunity to pick out and fly r/w trips as they happen. This was the Sunday morning 0610 Malaga-Billund flight followed by the 0910 Billund-Edinburgh. Was going to do it in the RYR 1-11 but I was short of recency on the NG.
