Daks over Prestwick - Friday evening

Post by EGL »

Fantastic evening on Friday at Prestwick. First evening/night event for me so a bit of a steep learning curve. One important lesson I learnt for next time was hat and gloves are essential regardless of the time of year!

At first it was clear the main floodlights weren't doing much, but credit to the organisers for re-positioning the ensuring all aircraft got lit up at one point throughout the evening.

Stunning restoration inside and out. Whereas Placid Lassie had what looked like rows of seats out an old 737 or similar. Didn't fancy the thought of a 10 3/4 hour flight in that like they did!
