After finding a lovely Air Scotland livery form POSKY's new 757, I decided to take a flight to Edinburgh. (It's pronounced Ed-In-Bur-O, not Edinburg, I hate it when people do that Angry

) I actually took off from Heathrow but I didn't get the idea to take some shots until I was over Leeds.

Somewhere over Leeds. A very good looking livery.

Perfect landing at Edinburgh airport. The landing was quite interesting. I was in the soup and didn't realise I was too high until I spotted the runway lights. Some of the passengers probably peed themselves while I corrected this.

Taxiing off.

Careful, that first step's a doozy. Looks like we Scots are frugal at our airports as well.

I only pretend to know what I'm talking about. Heck, that's what lawyers, car mechanics, and IT professionals do everyday. Wink

Sorry I can't get the first one to load. I can't see anything wrong and I tried re-uploading it three times. ??? That's odd.

Very funny, Orenda Tongue

Great shots! I like the touchdown, and probably the last one with the door opened is to get rid of the smell, coming from the seats.

Strange, Corel Photohouse 2 usually saves it as the lower case .jpg. Thanks for fixing it for me.
