    Lovely! Great to see a prop in AL colours, I hope we see them in Dublin soon.
    I was delighted to hear AL and Aer Arann were cozying up.
    I think Ruinair were leaning on Aer Arann a bit so good to see them teaming up with AL.

    Is it a tiny bit soft? the subject more than makes up for it:D
    What camera are you using? I use a 450D and find a lot of my pics are soft and have been told its a Canon trait!

    I think she is the first of 3 ATR 72-500's from RE, REO is to be based at EICK and the other 2 at EIDW.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,853 ✭✭✭Andrew33


    Any idea when they start ops?

    What lens/lenses are you using? although it doesn't seem to matter, I've heard guys out at EIDW using L series lens saying the same thing.

    I am only using a 350D (praying to the lotto gods for a 7D) and the same thing happens. Think you will find that a lot of DSLR's are like that. Digital photography was designed with post editing in mind anyway and there is quite a bit you can do in photoshop and the like.

    Why is the Tri-colour reversed on the starboard side? I know that Dave has no picture of that side but it was brought up on another site and I hadn't noticed it.:confused:

    Its common practise among airlines to 'fly the flag' as if it was on a flagpole with the wind blowing from the nose of the a/c, thus one side will always be reversed. I actually thought the EI themselves didn't follow this protocol.

    Problem with reversing the Irish flag is some people might think it's an Ivory Coast aircraft. :p

    EI-REL landed at Dublin today from Shannon after her new paint job.
