My flight would be the TOM2538 Manchester to Ibiza departing at 06:50 on the Friday morning. At check in I was allocated seats 10 D, E, F (as there was 3 of us travelling) I took up the window seat (10F) and had an amazing view of the engine and wing!</span></div><div><br><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjU8_XziagjysciYpoQ-oYMKqqkWKtPuLX8CVE3cCKUJrp37tomjf2BrDBYF_xTdBTsIXNVcvrF0IsTSkDAppl05315vF8Op1ftrHCtXoim-w7WRsD3da7MGw21bmc80NGM1h7h1jvhxTg/s640/blogger-image--1776735440.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjU8_XziagjysciYpoQ-oYMKqqkWKtPuLX8CVE3cCKUJrp37tomjf2BrDBYF_xTdBTsIXNVcvrF0IsTSkDAppl05315vF8Op1ftrHCtXoim-w7WRsD3da7MGw21bmc80NGM1h7h1jvhxTg/s640/blogger-image--1776735440.jpg"></a></div></div><div><br></div><div>At gate 210 was our aircraft B737-800 G-FDZB. Our flight, (TOM2538) was probably one of its last flights with Thomson this year before doing to SunWing as C-FPZB for the winter season. </div><div><br></div><div>As boarding began, they called up rows 32-24 to board first, then was rather annoyingly 32-11 (1 row before us!) but very soon they announced boarding for the rest of the passengers. It was raining, typical English weather! Parked on a stand next to us (208) was one of the Thomson B787 Dreamliners (G-TUIA) </div><div><br></div><div>The Captain came over the PA System and informed us that we would be cruising at 36,000ft and the flight time would be around 2 hours 40mins.</div><div><br></div><div>We were given the saftey demonstration by the crew just before pushback a few minutes early. </div><div><br></div><div>The taxi out to the runway (05L) at Manchester was quite quick due to the fact there was not many other movements about. I also have to say, the taxiways at Manchester were very bumpy, and I am not sure why.....</div><div><br></div><div>Anyway, the Concorde hangar at the Aviation Viewing Park was lit up nicely so which was nice to see at 7:00am in the morning. </div><div><br></div><div>As we lined up to 05L at Manchester, I was expecting to takeoff straight away, but in fact, we sat on the runway for about 10 seconds before the engines were powered up, we sped our way down the runway and out of Manchester. </div><div><br></div><div>As we got above the clouds, light was starting to appear and we could see what was beneath us! Nothing exciting, clouds. However, the horizon did look spectacular, seeing this was amazing! </div><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV3ZdjK7iv-FZAFXstEiBS70wl7zXvU5M2nIBdhq_snRlyBlsL8hcSRdmPfhfgVpYT4R7Q7LoQLQCC4tmINSYVp1lkkGzCRQzSExQmNexjwxCk-EregPAtAjeTH7Lvsz3jQNr4rq737XU/s640/blogger-image--2071742008.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV3ZdjK7iv-FZAFXstEiBS70wl7zXvU5M2nIBdhq_snRlyBlsL8hcSRdmPfhfgVpYT4R7Q7LoQLQCC4tmINSYVp1lkkGzCRQzSExQmNexjwxCk-EregPAtAjeTH7Lvsz3jQNr4rq737XU/s640/blogger-image--2071742008.jpg"></a></div><br></div></div><div>There wasn't really much to look at on the plane as G-FDZB was fitted with the older interior which meant it did not have any screens above the seats! However, the window provided me with my entertainment. </div></div><div><br></div><div>In flight service from the very friendly Thomson Cabin Crew began almost immediately after takeoff from Manchester, coming through to take hot food orders for later on in the flight. </div><div><br></div><div>As we cruised over the Pyranees we were provided with this sight for about 15 minutes!

<br />
On the Apple Store it is being sold at £2.99. <br />
<br />
The app is an absolutely fantastic simulator which is amazing for the price! With the initial purchase it comes with a selection of Airbus, Boeing and other aircraft. There are some in-app purchases for more aircraft which range from £0.69 (Airbus A330-200F) and £2.99 (Boeing B767-300) (They range in price due to the amount of liveries that aircraft has)<br />
<br />
There are also more areas which you can buy to enable you to fly in different areas rather than the same two or three all the time. <br />
<br />
You also get many different views when you are flying an aircraft. There are two ways to change a view. One by clicking the arrows and another by clicking the name of the view (All will become clear when you get the app if you do) by clicking the arrow it changes the area that you view from e.g. Follow Normal to Tail or Tail to Airport etc.........<br />
However, clicking the name of the view may change the position in that area you are viewing from (some areas do not have another view) e.g. Tail to Bottom, Bottom to Left Wing, Left Wing to Right Wing and Right Wing to Tail (Some may include an Elevator view) <br />
<br />
I hope that this post has helped you to get a better understanding of the app and helped you to make a decision if you are going to buy it or not. <br />

One was the British Airways Dove Livery (G-EUOH) and the other was the famous British Airways FireFly (G-EUPC) (G-EUPC has now been repainted back into the normal British Airways Livery which is a massive disappointment to a lot of people) <br />
<br />
The models which I bought are on the scale 1:400 (quite small) but they are of get good quality. You can find them on eBay from a seller in Hong Kong, however, I bought them from Aviation Megastore for about £20 each. <br />
<br />
The models have great detail and are great quality. They are metal models and only come in the 1:400 scale at the moment. <br />

<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As many of you will be aware British Airways were one of the main sponsors for the London 2012 Olympic Games. In honor of this British Airways painted 7 aircraft into a special Dove Livery and 1 aircraft into a special FireFly Livery. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><u>History of the FireFly (G-EUPC)</u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The aircraft left London Heathrow (Newly Painted into the FireFly livery) on the 17th May for Athens in the dark so that the Livery was kept a secret for as long as possible. On arrival into Athens the aircraft was prepared for its return journey to RNAS Culdrose. It left Athens carrying the Olympic flame using callsign BA2012<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #333333;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">. </span></span></span></span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;">It landed at RNAS Culdrose at just before 19:30 on the 18</span><sup style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">th</sup><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;"> May 2012. This date also marked the start of the Torch Relay. The aircraft operated passenger services on most days throughout the Torch Relay. However, when the flame was needed to be carried across waters the aircraft was taken out of passenger service for the day to make sure that there was no delay. The aircraft took part in a flypast down the Mall in London on the 10</span><sup style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">th</sup><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;"> September 2012. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;">Straight after arrival at Heathrow after the flypast it was prepared for a passenger service and was back in the air around 45 minuets later. On the 16</span><sup style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">th</sup><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;"> November 2012 the aircraft was taken out of the Hangar at Heathrow after a Maintenance visit. To everyone’s surprise the aircraft had actually been repainted into the normal British Airways Livery. This was a massive disappointment to everyone as it was such a great livery!!!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 18px;">As a Tribute to the livery I have put this Special Tribute post! Thank You so much to everyone that have allowed me to use their pictures/videos in this post!</span><br />

The deal is valued to be at around US$360m (£224).<br />
<br />
This will enable both Virgin Atlantic and Delta to ease their slot constraints at Heathrow.<br />
<br />
This also means that Virgin Atlantic are expected to join the Sky Team alliance in stead of Star Alliance.<br />
<br />
The Airlines will co-ordinate flight schedules, fares and code-shares throughout their services.Calebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16678468858077985211noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1862858986705381098.post-70143535834091470572012-12-08T11:32:00.000+00:002012-12-08T17:51:30.553+00:00The winner of the first competitionAs you may have known I have recently run the first competition on Twitter.

The aircraft made its first commercial fight operating the VS25 London Heathrow to JFK. This is the 8th A330 to enter service with the carrier, however it is the last to be built by Airbus for them. This is because G-VGEM is in Zurich for Cabin Modifications (after returning from its lease to China Airlines) before entering service. While G-VLUV is still with China Airlines but is due to be returned to Virgin in the next few weeks. Once G-VGEM and G-VLUV enter service this will bring the carriers fleet up to 10 A330-300's Calebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16678468858077985211noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1862858986705381098.post-1486329909001029942012-11-24T09:31:00.001+00:002012-11-24T14:23:29.975+00:00200th Post!<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For the 200th Post I thought that I would do something special....

</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">PlaneMadBlog started off as a news blog. Throughout the first month or so I introduced another blog (PlaneMadPictures) This is where I would post pictures from my visits to airports.

Here are a collection of pictures from Heathrow and Manchester.</span><br />

</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thank you for viewing this 200th Post and PlaneMadBlog! </span></div>Calebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16678468858077985211noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1862858986705381098.post-54357069510633975162012-11-23T19:36:00.000+00:002012-11-23T19:36:04.340+00:00Infinite FlightInfinite Flight is a flight simulator for the Apple iPad/iPod Touch/iPhone. At a cost of £2.99 it is one of the best flight simulators out there for the price!<br />
<br />
See pictures below for the aircraft available in the app. Quite a few of them you will have to buy separately to the app. <br />
<br />
<br />
Some of the graphics are better than others. On the Airbus A321 the gear goes up and down really realistically however on the B787-9 the gear just disappears and appears every time you select the gear up and down.<br />
<br />
When you select the 'I am already a pilot. Let Me fly' button it will being up a selection of planes. You need to select one of them to be able to fly. Some of those aircraft in the list are not already installed. You have to pay £1.99 for an in app purchase of another type of Aircraft. Although you get a few liveries for the in app Purchases rather than only the default livery for the pre installed ones, I think it is a little expensive.<br />
<br />
Once you have selected an aircraft you then need to select a region. The San Francisco one is already installed. Once you click on San Francisco it allows you to chose what airport in the area that you want to take off/land on and then the runway in that airport. Some runways are more suitable for larger planes e.g. A380 than others.<br />
<br />
Once you have done than select Take-Off or Landing at the bottom of the screen and you are almost ready to go! Click 'ok' and then select the weather.<br />
<br />
Now click the 'Fly' Button.<br />
<br />
This takes you to the aircraft on the runway. You can select the camera angle that you want to view the aircraft from once you have calibrated the screen. You can move the camera around on the outside views to get the view that you most want.<br />
<br />
You are now ready to go!<br />
<br />
Here are some screen shots from the Flight Simulator app.<br />

The slots that are at London Heathrow will be used to operate more domestic flights along with the earlier announced London Heathrow to Manchester services (this was able with slots that the airline leased out and the lease ending). The new services will be to Edinburgh and Aberdeen. The schedules for these services have not yet been announced but they are likely to be announced within the next 2 weeks. <br />
<br />
Virgin Atlantic will be starting their Sort Haul Flights at the start of the 2013 summer timetable on the 31st March 2013 using both A319 and A320 aircraft. <br />
<br />
The previously announced Heathrow to Manchester service is scheduled to operate with a sole A319, however, with more short haul services, A320's may appear on the route and plane spotters at Manchester won't see the same A319 again and again!
