eng Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Was passing the airport this morning and stopped with my wee boy for a look and see. Took a couple of pic's, not great quality and the sky was a bit overcast, last few were a result though - One of my charges about to depart for LHR in full working order - Tam Cook 757 off to the sun (Olli told me this one "rumbled his belly"!!!) - Baby BMI seconds from touchdown - And my lucky strike for today was this very new and shiny KLM Embraer, which I've not seen at Glasgow before - Showing no regard for the local signage!!!! - That was all we got, enjoy, Eng Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Fleming Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Tam Cook 757 off to the sun (Olli told me this one "rumbled his belly"!!!) - Only in Glasgow.......lol!! Nice shots, those Embraers are nice jets - still surprises me that a twin jet shaped like that is only 4 abreast seating though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenDragon Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 I keep rushing to my binoculars thinking a Continental or Delta 757 is going out but it's often one of those Embraers, they're scale models of winglet equipped 757!

I look after the 195 version for Flybe, and according to the marketing dept at Embraer the reason is everyone wants either a window seat or an aisle seat! They are very nice aeroplanes to work on but thats only because they dont seem to go wrong.......yet!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than the one that had the mishap on the Isle of Man... It's the Flybe 195s I've flown on, mainly to Birmingham. Only complaint is the seat backs could be higher (for a taller chap like me).

Antony Robertson Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Ah yes, the famous Isle of Man incident!! Lets just say that the main problem there apart from the air cycle machine that failed was an "overenthusiastic" crew! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
