British Airways firing up and away

British Airways A320's are one of those planes that allways perform some very nice (and powerfull) take-offs...
Yesterday, with the wind blowing expected them to make one of those...the take-off ended up not beeing as early as I expected but still in a nice place for some shots...(and way better than the next A320, from Condor that made quite late departure...)

Up and away with a bit of the old runway 24 still visible down...

with Ponta de S.Lourenço ahead...

G-GATS

British up and away...

Back to July, from the same day of Air Europa's 30th Aniversary livery (check HERE) a previously unpublished pic of British Airways A320 G-GATS departing to London Gatwick, from runway 23...

Love these kind of shots....and really miss making some of these....not really a fan of taxi/side shots....

British Airways from 23

First day of another handling company for British Airways at Madeira.
It should be interesting to register the moment with the handling vehicles around,,,unfortunatelly arrived to late for that...still...got the take-off...always nice on afternoons with runway 23 in use.

Feel free to bring an A320 with Sharklets, anytime.....
