Planes and stuff

Air Méditerranée started flying to Madeira on this summer season and it's been coming to Madeira for a few weeks. Despite that still hadn't got any pic of it. Last Thursday decided to go for it: was coming on the afternoon right on time to get it after work and it was a B735, which is not that usual around here... But oposite to Funchal, the weather at the airport was quite dull and it looks like the pilots had only trained Madeira's  runway 05...despite the wind was indicating runway 23, they chose, both for landing and take-off runway 05.... After missing the landing (was waiting on 23, it landed on 05...) headed for the usual spots, together with a few more spotters, which would give a  nice location for runway 23 take-off...... Despit the winds indicating 23, it linned up on 05, passing by Bulgaria Air  LZ-FBC and  Falcon 2000 PH-VBG check the wind indicator....it was quite a long take-off run... F-HCOA and (taxiing) the other french traffi...

Often, the Air Berlin flight from Zurich is made with Belair planes , that despite the Air Berlin full livery, bear the Swiss flag and registration. Despite being a litle used to it, I still find curious to see the Swiss flag/reg on that livery. This one landed on runway 23.... And took-off from runway 05....
