A sneaky pick or three at Cardiff Airport

A lot of visiting biz aircraft at Cardiff Airport today so it was rude not to grab a pick or two.  It was a great shame not do be able to get them all.

Visitors today were Gulfstream G550, Cessna 560XL Citation Excel, Piaggio P180 Avanti, Cessna 525 CitationJet CJ2+ & Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100

What a day at the Cambrian Café Bar

On what turned out to be a very cold and overcast day a visit to the Cambrian Café Bar turned out to be much better than could imagine.

Many were awaiting the visit of the first ever Norwegian Air Shuttle Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner which was scheduled for maintenance at British Airways Maintenance Cardiff (BAMC).

On arrival we could see an orange tail of an EasyJet Airbus A319 which was joined shortly by a further two that had diverted due to fog at Bristol Airport.

This wasn't it and also photographed Cessna 525 CitationJet CJ1 and a British Airways Boeing 747-400.

Due to this there will be two pics of the day.

A flying lesson at Swansea Airport

First visit to Swansea Airport today for a flying experience at Cambrian Flying Club.

My experience was in a Cessna F150L and Cambrian Flying Club was very busy as many people were making the most of the glorious weather.

Unfortunately I had little time to stay around to take photo's however managed to get the Cessna Grand Caravan of Skydive Swansea.
