Nice shot bob. The airport seems a little dull though! I hope you managed to get through quickly.

Best wishes from London, FAI

You're on the ball fai, it's only been on Panaramio for 20 seconds. I'm trying to put to sleep the madeira holiday, I have hundreds of pictures but I think it's time to move on. Bob

haha, it's the same for me Bob, I took over 100 photos of the landscape in Jersey, only a few are of good quality. But seeing my need to make a show on Google Earth, I have decided to upload them slowly. When I get to the final shot from the plane, I know my work is done =)

We Googlites think the same - It's very spooky... As for the flight; we were supposed to take off at 19.30hrs so I was taking my time, as you do, and we got a last call to our flight at 18.30. Everyone was on board within minutes, so off we went about 30 minutes early. Bob

Glad to know it! Same for my flight really, except that ONE person had to get on board 10 minutes before the scheduled departure, meaning that we left on time :p

There's always ONE. As I'm up for work at 6:00 I think it's TFB. Bob <:o)...

Thank you Eugene, as airport go, this one is good but the landing can be a little bumpy :o( at times. Bob
