A340, what superb shots, particularly the one down the hose. I see the Engineer rarely parted from his coffee mug. Same in my day. I'm sure that Chickenlover can put some words to your shots let's hope he is still following and can help out. Could the last three be from a Scottac, West Country, Wales and Scotland ? (305 and 302 taken from a third aircraft suggests a 3 ship). Assuming they were taken on the same trip. Spectacular wherever they come from.

Omega, the top gear "gig" was certainly a good bit of PR for the fleet. But what were the challenges in landing on beaches etc ? I bet Coff has an interest, he might be the bloke who put a Chippie down on a beach, or was he ?
