KLM MD-11 going OTT above the clouds reminds me that there are only five weeks of MD-11 service remaining with that airline :(

Scheduled withdrawal is 25th October.

Eeek! Some nice clear skies would help to get a few shots of the blue/white 3 pots before they get parked up in a desert somewhere.

Cheers - my brain completley failed to parse it!  Sat there for a moment before I even worked-out which part was the registration :)

From the flight code PAL001 I assume it's a notable person movement.

Now that the temporary transfer of Air Traffic services came to an end on the 18th September,I wonder will we see the same  level of "stacked" flights going overhead;seasonal factors will play their part in traffic levels  of course,and weather patterns over the Atlantic.Scottish now transfer the flights further west now to Shanwick. Mind you it was good when it lasted!!!!

To kind of use a quote from an old Morecambe and Wise show, " I had all the right numbers and letters.  Not necessarily in the right order".

Rats, popped outside only to see grey clouds!  What was it, do you know?  Bizjet presumably?

No one has visually identified it as yet.  Opinion split between Challenger 605 and Phenom.  Truth will out soon.

Watched an Ethiopian Dreamliner go over this morning, trail just faintly iluminated by the dawn twilight.  Turns-out it was ET-AOP, the one that caught fire at Heathrow last year.   Repaired now and back in service.
