Posted: Tue Apr 02, 2013 6:39 pmThe shots i really like are the inflight , a good reference to even edit approach's ... just a pity we did not have such quality camera's 50-70 years back , for reference off the older aircraft .. the Classics 
.. like Viscounts .. now that has been a mission in its self to paint 
.. like Viscounts .. now that has been a mission in its self to paint Posted: Tue Apr 02, 2013 9:07 pmWell done matey, that's a great selection of shots. I kid you not it took me about 8-9 very enjoyable minutes to get through all those. One of the stand out things for me was how dirty that Cathay A340 was. And, I think I've changed my earlier opinion in one particular regard.. the ANZ fleet should ditch the boring white scheme and paint that All Black scheme across the whole fleet
Cheers for all the pics!

That is now a Airbus , the 330/340 they are unique looking .. and Yes the Cathay Pacific is one wicked scheme , the airline even obliged a low pass fly-over off Christchurch back in 1995 but in a debut introduction Boeing 777

hmm - I see what you mean, the dash 8 is a LOT quieter although I thought the new 600 series was a bit quieter
Posted: Wed Apr 03, 2013 4:12 pmYeh I imagine they would be quieter but I bet they havn't fixed the seats in them. The Q300 is sooo much better in terms of pax comfort.

hmm id almost disagree the seats in the new 600 series is whole new design - and is very comfortable although you get the Impression that they are trying to save space cause the backrests are a lot narrower
Posted: Sat Apr 06, 2013 9:16 amThats good that they fixed them up a bit. I just about couldnt move after my last flight on an ATR. Wouldnt surprise me if they were narrower, trying to cram more plebs in....
