My first flight back to @manairport was always going to be a fantastic day, but I must give a huge shout out to @Supersi1 who put up with the ‘glorious’ British weather 🌧 to capture this incredible shot the moment our wheels touched down!

On Saturday night I popped down to @manairport in the pouring rain to capture @emirates second evening @AirbusintheUK A380 flight arrive, and the bonus was that one of the nicest guys in aviation @ward_jr was bringing her in!! #Emirates #A380 #Airbus #ManchesterAirport #EGCC

Liftoff. The Artemis II mission launched from @NASAKennedy at 6:35pm ET (2235 UTC), propelling four astronauts on a journey around the Moon. Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.

@robloxbrostm No, we need to be type rated on both, which I’ve spent the last month or so completing

@ward_jr Are you allowed to fly the A350 with an A380 type rating only?

@ward_jr Just wondered if you captained us on EK19 Sunday evening to Manchester . Not sure if the captain said James Ward or White . Either way it was a fabulously smooth flight and landing

@adrianpdy Most places, no we don’t need sim landing before flying to an airport but there are some in the world that require it As for ETOPS, it’s the rules that allow twin engine aircraft to fly extended periods away from suitable airports, something I never worried about in the 380

@ward_jr What is ETOPS? Do you do sim landings at airports that you have never landed before?
