    No Sir, not a pilot more of a Spotter but do have friends who bring me for flips in their Aircraft and like to go flying in General, going on said 146's to Spain for a holiday.

    BA used to operate 146's on their Dublin-Gatwick route. Used to love travelling on those planes - prior to that BA used ATR's I think. I think Aer Lingus had a few at one stage? Now it's all boring oul BA 737's to Gatwick.

    Never say 'spotter' Steyr. You're an 'aircraft enthusiast':p My 'aircraft enthusiast' friends made me aware of the difference. Pure spotters tend to be anorak wearing social misfits with a fixation on lists and and numbers. :rolleyes:They rarely actually fly in a plane because it has no interest for them. :confused: The aircraft enthusiast on the other hand has a life beyond looking at aircraft and you can have a normal conversation with them about important aspects of life like girls, beer, sport etc.:cool: I'm sure you don't even own an anorak Steyr.:D

    Aer Lingus operated BA146s when they flew in and out of London City circa 2000.

    Well you won't drop anything much bigger in or out of there now will you.
