St. Athan (EGDX/EGSY) 2024

Post by PH-AVR »

This is a little unusual spotting report as I only saw the planes from the air, 2 minutes before landing @Cardiff. Registrations could be tied thanks to the excellent website from the South Wales Aviation Group (https://cardiffstathan.blogspot.com/p/a ... athan.html). I really could use the tie-up of the Asky 737, saw only one but there are supposed to be two. Not sure which Asky 737 stands back to back to the Brussels A320 in Smurf cs... Actual ID welcome!
cheers

Thanks for the pics, they are really helpful. I was there the same day (on the ground) and can confirm the Asky 738 (rear end on to Smurfs) was ET-AOK.
