Thanks, folks.
It looks an interesting place for all sorts of reasons....

The wind last night looked pretty calm to me. And, just to clarify, we boarded in good time, sat with the door open for a good half an hour, then sat at the holding point for the 03 arrivals for around ten minutes.
230 punters to Newcastle shouldn't have proved a serious challenge on 21 to a 757, should it?
However, I sat next to the front overwing exit and the sound effects for the first two minutes after departure were grin-inducing.
