Europa 7236 llegando a al umbral de la 03 para despegar con rumbo Adolfo Suárez-Madrid Barajas con un avión la verdad es que muy poco habitual, tanto en la ruta -siempre cubierta con los flamantes brasileños E195- como en el aeropuerto, al solo ser Air Europa la única aerolínea con vuelos regulares que tiene en flota dicho tipo de aeronave... Así que del A330 ya ni hablemos, en 51 años de aeropuerto coruñés ninguno ha osado aterrizar, en parte influenciado por una pista de 1938, en parte por una plataforma pequeña.
Si lo harían en 2001, y en la misma semana un Boeing 767-300 y un 777-200ER de la ya desaparecida Air Europe (No "Europa"!).
Este último avión sería el modelo más grande de la historia, por lo menos hasta la fecha de este comentario que pisó nuestras instalaciones, en un día de visibilidad muy reducida y realizando la complicada aproximación visual a la cabecera sur, por aquel entonces la 04 y que ahora debido a la desviación del campo magnético de la tierra pasó a ser denominada 03.

Remarks |
|
|
The Shuttleworth Collection's Spitfire Vc was built by Westland Aircraft at Yeovil and was issued to No. 310 (Czech) Squadron at Duxford in 1942. While serving with No. 310 Squadron, AR501 escorted many USAAF B17 and B24 bombers, indeed AR501 may well have escorted the famous B17 'Memphis Belle'. AR501 was later taken on by the RAF's Central Gunnery School and was used postwar by Loughborough College as an instructional airframe. It was transferred to The Shuttleworth Collection in 1961 and was restored to flying condition for the film 'The Battle of Britain'. It was stored for a while after filming, until restoration to authentic wartime condition was carried out by a volunteer team at Duxford. Over the winter of 2000/2001 AR501 was repainted and elliptical wingtips were refitted, returning the aircraft to the condition in which it was delivered to 310 Squadron. It is currently undergoing a thorough ground-up restoration in the workshop at Old Warden. c/n WASP/20/223.

1st of Type for AC !
Built in Cincinnati in 1937 and flew in Florida until her last flight in 1948. She was in storage until the mid eighties when she was imported to the U.K where restoration started. The restorer sold her off and she was placed in storage again for another 18 years. Acquired by Colin Essex in June 2013 who has spent over 1400 hours putting her back to her original condition. Now resident at Old Warden with the owner's 1924 Hawker Cygnet G-EBJI
