Been a bit quiet on here, but I’m incredibly pleased and honoured to announce I’ve started a new job as a First Officer at @British_Airways flying the A320 family out of @HeathrowAirport. Hope to see some of you onboard soon! #newjob #pilotlife
Well that’s a wrap on 2024:
✈️ 210 flights at 2 airlines
🌍 240,000 miles (almost 10x around the planet)
⏰ 647 hours
📍 55 airports
🗺️ 33 countries
👥 40,144 passengers
Happy New Year everyone! Here’s to many more safe landings next year. ✈️🫡
If anyone is around at Luton next weekend spotting could they let me know? W9 5352 PMI-LTN is going to be a special one for me. Sunday 22nd Sep landing approx 6pm at LTN. Somewhat subject to change of course, but if anyone is there spotting/working let me know. 🫡🙏
The Northern Lights were a very pleasant surprise over the Alps and southern Germany tonight! Some spectacular views on our way back from Dalaman. #NorthernLights #aurora
Some very strong winds last night meant a very quick trip down to Portugal from Luton, but sadly the same can’t be said for the way back! I think 591 knots is a new record for me in the A320! ✈️💨💨
My 2023 flying is complete after getting back from SSH last night! ✈️✅
Few stats for the year and my 1st flying the Airbus:
- 674 hours across 245 flights
- 54 airports in 24 countries
- 262,053 miles flown
- 39,780 passengers
- 100 landings at LTN
Here’s to many more in 2024!
Nice bit of Christmas flying today. Wasn’t lucky enough to have it off! Pristina and back for me on the 25th taking G-WUKR for the honours. Made it almost 30 mins early on both sectors! 👌 Merry Christmas all 🎄🎅 #avgeek #pilotlife
Some different flying today. Swapping the right seat for the left while getting recurrent back in the SET doing a handful of approaches and landings. Quick trip up to Hawarden, quite apt for the day job with it being owned by Airbus. No Belugas there today though! #pilotlife
A small milestone of 500 hours on the A320 Family completed a couple days ago flying LTN-SSH on G-WUKZ. Few stats from the 500hrs:
- 173 flights
- 30 destinations
- 34,408 passengers
- 187,070 miles flown
- 2 diversions and 2 unplanned layovers
Here’s to the next 500+ #avgeek
Letting someone else do the driving today. My first time on @VirginAtlantic in a while for the hop across the pond this afternoon on a very new A350. Back on BA so shall see how they compare! #avgeek
Bit of non work flying today. Swapping the right seat for the left and the jet for the turboprop. Next up Athens on Sunday! ✈️
A couple of pics from a recent flight on our longest route, from Luton to Hurghada. Views of Cairo flying overhead in both directions with the routings that night. Photos taken approximately 2.5 hours apart. #pilotlife
Nice early flight down to Tirana and back in some lovely weather. Alps looking as nice as ever! Bit of A321neo action today. Same again tomorrow, but off to Riga instead. #pilotlife #avgeek
Well today was a bit surreal! First time flying the A320ceo and first with passengers. Video captured by a colleague (@PilotFlood) travelling as a passenger into Mallorca this morning, landing was all mine. 😁🤙✈️ #avgeek #pilotlife
Think I just missed you @AmandaR4444 with the large shortcut your colleagues gave us. 😂
‼️For all the (Luton and Palma) plane spotters out there.‼️
If anyone is able to catch any movement of flights W95125 and W95126 at LTN or PMI on Tuesday (25th April) that would be appreciated. It’s a special flight for me! Scheduled 0745-1115 LTN-PMI and 1240-1420 PMI-LTN.👍✈️
@PMIPLANESPOTTER @PMPLANESPOTTING By any chance are any of you going to be at PMI between 11am-1pm on Tuesday? 🤔
