Postby Leebee0 » Wed Oct 13, 2010 11:51 am

Hi all

Well i can almost guess what it was you first thought about when you woke this morning "how many miners have been brought to the surface" or is "XH558 going to make her last flight of the year today"!! No i know what it was "what was flying in and out of Manchester Airport 19 years ago Today" :) . Well by a stroke of luck for you i was there 19 years ago today and it looked something like this......



Thanks for looking ;)
