Five years at a one of the global accountancy "big 4" firms (my daughter works for one of the others, in audit, in London) will be like 10 years in any "normal" job. They take their pound of flesh,...

I flew in TUIJ (a 787-9) not so long ago and I'd say that needs a visit to the paintshop aswell - the wing upper surfaces were like a patchwork quilt.

Noted TUIJ making her way back across the Atlantic to LGW during the day yesterday so whatever happened can't have been too serious.

P&O Cruises I suspect? Probably the same series I flew with them this time last year LGW-TFS to join their ship Azura in the Canaries.

Yesterday afternoon I was treated to the sight of G-LUXE (a 40+ year old 146) as METMAN1 making nice circular trails at FL340 over North Hants/West Berks. On another "air sniffing" mission no doubt.

Thanks. According to their website, the "converted" freighters can carry up to 40.5t upstairs. That must take a lot of manual loading, with long turnarounds.

It looks like this weekend Wamos are operating LGW-BGI with a Maleth flight no.

It's an A333 (EC-NHM) with 375 seats (9 abreast and no premium, but does have IFE!)
