    Love the AirOne lifting off the runway.

    The Delta livery look strange on a small aircraft.

    Shame the heat/exhaust blurred the shot of the AB tails.

    Quite a number of long term stored a/c there. Are they stored for return to service or stored post lease to Virgin/SAS, and awaiting a new leasee? Can't think that SAS/Virgin would want pics of their a/c grounded to get out. What about the European wet climate? I thought that was why the desert was used to store a/c.

    Im not too sure to be honest there looked like some charter A/C in the rear

    Brilliant shots, nice and crisp and clear and well composed, well done, if i could fault them id only have asked for some prop blur on the prop aircraft other than that they are excellent.:)

    Great pics!:) Just wondering what type of plane is that Turkish Airlines plane. An A330 or something? And is that Iberia an A330 too?


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,559 ✭✭✭andy_g


    there the A320/A321

    but why do the turkish airlines and iberia planes have two emergency exit doors in the centre of the plane while the aer lingus a320 does not?

    A319/A320 have overwing WINDOW exits while the longer A321 has a total of 4 DOOR exits. All are single aisle aircraft (also the shrinked A318 with its single overwing window exit)

    Thus the A321 (to the casual observer) more resembles the A330 which also has 4 door exits on each side. However the A330 doors are bigger, but in relation to the aircraft size look the same size as the A321 doors.
