Merry Christmas

This is a Christmas message from Aircraft Aviation in Europe.

What an exiting year has been this year! apart my trip I wen't to Malta & back to the United Kingdom I had an awesome trip to the United States of America! if you wan't to know what I have been up to when I was in the US you can look through my blogs, check out my Facebook and YouTube of my full flight to Las Vegas and helicopter flight to the Grand Canyon. So what will my trips will be in 2016? I'm hoping to go to Tokyo, Japan in Spring or Autumn. Next Tuesday I will be returning to Malta for 10 days only for the New Year with my friends out there. Finally is in summer 2016 not only I'm going to Malta to celebrate my hometown's festa for 2 weeks I might be heading to my second visit to Catania, Italy or possibly Madrid, Spain for 2 days.

I like to thank you who been watching my YouTube videos and liking my photos on Facebook. That's all I have to say, I like to wish you all a very Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year 2016.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

What is Virgin America?

Virgin America Callsign Redwood is an American low-fare and high-quality service based from Burlingame, California in San Francisco started in 8th August 2007 operating within the United States and few international flights to Mexico and Canada. Virgin America has 5 codeshare agreements with China Eastern Airlines, China Southern Airlines, Hawaiian Airlines, Singapore Airlines and Virgin Australia for ideal connecting flights it would be nice if Virgin Atlantic will be part to codeshare if any Americans like to travel to the United Kingdom.

Virgin America's current fleet has 10 Airbus A319 and 47 Airbus A320-200 only 6 in current order however for the future in 2017-2018 Virgin America has ordered 10 Airbus A321neo and from 2020-2022 Virgin American will have 30 Airbus A320neo. Unfortunately I don't know more about Virgin America for now if I travel with them in the future I will make a review of the flight.

Top 5 shots of 2015

As we come to 2016 I like to share my best aviation shots of 2015.

5: Fly Banner

You don't see this anywhere across the world apart from the United States. The plane I think it's a Mooney attached an advert banner flying around Santa Monica Pier in LA, California, United States promoting a company Moon Valley Nursery it's not children school I think it's a gardening store bassed in California, Nevada and Arizona. This was taken on 30th August 2015.

4: Lookout it's Airbus A380!

As I watched the view of the North American continent through Greenland I saw British Airways Airbus A380 from London Heathrow, UK. I already mention this on my blog review of my long haul flight experience you can have a read of it. This was taken on 24th August 2015.

3: Emirates up she goes!

Emirates flight EK108 departing Malta bound for Larnaca, Cyprus via Dubai, United Arab Emirates. What is the best shot for Emirates departure from Malta? Because when I see Emirates Airbus A330, A340 and Boeing 777-200 & 300 it appears the aircraft has less cargo in my opinion so it climbs bit early with a good chance to get shot for heavy aircraft. This was taken 2nd January 2015. 

2: Beautiful British sky!

I was thinking to make this number 1 because when I departed London Gatwick, UK the weather looks beautiful around West Sussex and South Down National Park, I have requested Air Malta to publish my photo on their Facebook page & still waiting. This was taken 1st March 2015.

1: Emirates up she goes! Part 2

This was one of Aircraft Aviation in Europe's popular photo with more likes & shares on Facebook. Why is it popular? When the aircraft departed the weather was a bit cloudy & landing gear doors open with the lovely aircraft rotated to the sky that's in my opinion. This was also taken in Malta on 7th January 2015.

I was going to take more photos when I head back to Malta in few weeks I decided not too because I might not be doing aviation photography that much before I get prepared for the New Year. I was also do the same in London Gatwick, UK but when I get there it will be night flight so it will be not include best shots.
