Farewell to Niki Lauda

Niki Lauda died yesterday...
I guess no presentations are needed for the amazing man...

The only of its airlines that hasn't (still) been around here was the most recent Lauda Motion...

A few shots to remember...

Lauda Air B737 OE-LNO, back in 2004

One of the few airlines that ever flew the Embraer to Madeira...Embraer ERJ-190LR OE-IHD (a registration now used by one of Lauda Motion's A320...This Embraer is now flying as HB-JVL at Helvetic)

A321 OE-LES, June 2016

A320 OE-LER, April 2013

First A320 with Sharklets

Yesterday we got the first A320 with Sharklets at Madeira...twice!

OE-LER, from Niki was the plane and besides beeing the first "Sharkleted" A320 at Madeira it was also my first Niki with the new livery (crappy...the previous one, with the Fly looked a lot better, though I'm sure this one's cheaper....)

On final to runway 05

about to land for the second time of the day, from Vienna.

Touchdown!

Arriving at the stand with a framing who doesn't leave any doubts on the airport these were taken... :)
