This is a bit of a different departure for me..hey...departure..get it ..oh please yourselves. As it's a civ...civilia....i can't bring myself to say it. It's not military .
This is back when Wales had it's own Airline (a very small one ), but we did have a 737 once , but mainly a couple of these! So here's a short flight of one of its routes from Cardiff to Dublin.
"Bonjour mon amis"
"This is Ireland you d , they speak English here!"
"Really !"

You did it again! Two in the same day. Man, you are a true ar-teeeest. That civilian aircraft is beautiful, and so are your pics of it. As for the language thing.....you had me on the floor with that. Don't do that again .... the cramps are killing me.
Thanks again ... Art |

But there is no tailhook, I bet you wont agree on that
Unless that is, we have a bet if you can fit one on to it  _________________

Oh Tailhook, you can do it. Besides, the new look might be an improvement.

Another great set of shots Welsh. I especially like the banking after climbout...shot from 7 o'clock position. Something about that overhead wing. Again a few shots down with the head on 1 o'clock angle. All nice though and a great flight.
BTW what is the aircraft? And you had me laughing pretty hard to trying to say the "C" word. |
