One of Virgin Atlantic's newest A330's G-VINE, made the GLA-MCO service this morning, and fairly sunny again...

Great pictures!! I think I am starting to grow fonder of the new VS livery. And it looks especially nice on this A330-300!!! G-VINE...I can't figure out what name the aircraft has been christened with?

Great shots Big Al! It's always great when the sun comes out, it was like that at YYZ today. I really like the VS and EK shots, great angles.

Cheers fella, it's typical Scottish autumnal weather, a few days of decent light at the end of wet, grey summer.

Thanks Chris, nice autumnal light across to the Campsie Fells in the distance. Hopefully someone got a shot of G-VINE at MCO, she just landed 15 minutes ago after the 9 hour flight from Glasgow.

Very nice shots! That A330 looks great and the Fokker looks awesome.

Great shots and I think that a 757 with winglets is pure eyecandy.
