Bizjets: Citation X and the CR7 little Gulfstream...
On a quick stop today, a couple of Bizjets at the far positions of the apron.
Cristiano Ronaldo's (CR7) Gulfstream G200 (he arrived yesterday for a couple of days at his home town of Funchal) and a beaultiful brazilian Cessna 750 Citation X

Photo of the Week: Night Gulfstream
It's been quite a while since I last made some night-shots, also, these kind of birds don't usually stay in front of the balcony so, took the oportunity
Too bad there wasn't any other traffic at the time, it would have been interesting to get some more lights on the back...

Photo of the Week: Panning the Gulfstream
Not the greatest Gulfstream fan but it's allways nice to have the oportunity to snap some shots at one...
The brazilian and the retro
TAP Air Portugal made one of its retro marketing flights to Madeira today.
More on that later...
For now, a shot of Brazilian private bizjet Gulstream G650 ER PR-GVI at the apron with TAP's retro A333 CS-TOV departing back to Lisbon...

Photo of the Week: Wind Rose Premier
The joys of football... :)
Last month we got at Madeira, for the first time, the Ukranian airline WindRose, on a charter flight with FC Dynamo Kyev, which came to play with local CS Marítimo for the UEFA Competitions.
After one season they had planned a charter operation that was canceled this was finaly a first :)

Cristiano Ronaldo de partida
Por hoje fica um par de registos do aparelho que transportou o Cristiano Ronaldo para Madrid, após a cerimónia de mudança de nome do aeroporto da Madeira...(sim, aquela que foi apadrinhada pelo Batman e que levou a Madeira ...ou pelo menos o busto dele às bocas do mundo...)
Wells Fargo flying coach
I guess the Wells Fargo is one of those names that makes the imagination of all the western fans out there to really take-off...
Well..in this case the reality, was a little more current, and it was landing.
The Wells Fargo Bank "coach" had wings and it was arriving from Caracas (CCS) for a technical stop, before proceding to Lisbon (LPPT/LIS)

Privates (or kind of...)
This week we had, at Madeira, what is probably the traffic of the Year:
A B727 (XT-BFA) from the Burkina Faso Goverment, that brought the country's President in a personal business visit to our island.
Didn't manage to get the arrival so, a still shot just in case I don't get tomorow's departure....
Curiously, this plane belonged to TAP Air Portugal as CS-TBY, back in the 80's
Also on the apron there was this private bizjet, belonging to Europ-Star Ltd. Maltese registrations aren't usual around here...

O primeiro da temporada
Apesar de ultimamente estar a dedicar-me mais ao spotting naval (e a gostar cada vez mais...), o dia de hoje trazia um movimento que não podia deixar passar em branco: o primeiro A330 da Air Berlin da temporada de Inverno...
Infelizmente, a meteo não tem estado nada famosa por cá nos últimos dias e, a exemplo de ontem, muita volta os aviões deram no ABUSU e arredores antes de conseguirem aterrar por cá (para nem mencionar os que ainda foram fazer "turismo" ao Porto Santo ou Canárias...)
De qualquer forma, com maior ou menos visibilidade, os aviões lá vieram e de impermeável e agarrado ao guarda-chuva e máquina, fiz as fotos possíveis...
