Unknown tour, Leg 4, Citation X, Heathrow to Luton

[woottsbj25]

[font color="blue" size="2" face="arial"]Hi everyone,

Well, my next leg takes me in a beautiful aircraft on an extremley short run from London Heathrow to London Luton. The run was about 16NM, so I don't think the plane was best friends with me for this one.

Enjoy the shots!

Executive passengers are loaded and we are ready for push and start:

Not too far off the holding point for runway 27L:

'Cessna G-PAPU, line up and wait 27L'

A freshly landed BA with a Chinese tail taxis in to the stand as we smoothly rotate:

Parked up at Luton. Directly on the other side of the fence in front of the aircraft's nose in this shot, on the grassy area between the road and the fence, is, in real life, a hotel. I stayed there before going planespotting to Zurich - it offers great views across the terminal areas etc. Very nice! Also, recently, the sign on the blue building to the right of the picture has changed to 'Gulfstream.' Just a few quick things! :D

Hope you enjoyed the shots. It's very late (or very early, as you might put it), here, and my eyes are drooping, so I'm off to bed :-sleepy. Comments appreciated.

See ya in the morning ;-)[/font]
