Well caught. It reminds me of the Concorde.

Thanks Spad...it certainly helped having 1/1000th already set as I didn't have time to change anything.

The airport has entered the summer schedule re. runway operating hours now...the newer of the two runways is operating for take-offs throughout most of the day M-F with reduced hours at weekends.

I'll post some shots later showing the type of shots you can get now from the 'southside' airport perimeter...becoming quite popular there now.

regards

Karlo

I can just imagine a B777 being told he's number two to a crow!
