Planes and stuff

The posting on some FB aviation groups reminded me of sharing these pics on the A310 at Madeira.
It doesn't show every A310 I've caught but as far as I can remember it does represent each livery I managed to get around here ...
(got a few regs from TAP and Sata...)




Some Sata colors, in the A310...

Finally I get these online...

It's the photos I managed to took from the Spanish Air Force A310 that brought the Kings of Spain to the visit to our Archipelago.
They stayed a couple of days at Madeira and then came to Porto Santo, for a quick visit and lunch, before leaving.

Was expecting this one as I had missed the day they made the trainings at Madeira and never had photographed a military A310...

Very short final to runway 36...




Some local ocasional spotters...

Cleared for take off...

Yesterday was the big miss of the month (and probably the year) for me.
There was an A310 from Ejercito del Aire (Spanish Air Force) training some touch & Go's here at Madeira.

It should be related with the visit of the Kings of Spain, in the end of the month.
Maybe they'll be coming with that plane...anyway I won't be around then so even if they come in the A310 I'll miss it again....

Jorge Abreu managed to get it and has already a couple of pics online:
