Hello all,
Now the winter season is here, and my hobby schedule is getting quiet, I've had time to work on a few set's of photo's from 2015 I never got round to uploading!
I thought I'd share my visit to Edinburgh Airport for number crunching/photo's on the 15th September. It was my first visit, as it looked good with some variety than just EasyJet, Ryanair and Flybe. It was also the final few weeks for Virgin Little Red, and was probably the closest I've been so far to a 787!
The weather was a bit hit and miss, with some fog in the morning, with some clear spot's later on in the day.
