First-up; my profuse apologies for just popping in then out again without leaving any other commentary; promise I'll make up for it next week...
Wanted to share this because we are proud of what's been achieved...
Friday June 30 saw EasyJet Airbus A320 G-EZUT perform a London Gatwick > Paris Charles de Gaulle and return...
Nothing unusual about that you will justifiably say... except for us...
Sitting in the right-hand seat, at just 20 years and 2 days of age was our eldest grandson (Ben) performing his first commercial rotations as First Officer... The Captain flew the outbound sector while Ben flew the return
Granddad (me) and Dad (Andrew) grinning broadly like Cheshire cats as we watched him depart and arrive later in the day...
Gatwick is notorious for difficulty in getting shots; so these were the best I could manage... Arrival is not too bad, but the depart is sadly a 'belly-shot'!
1. G-EZUT departs LGW as EZY 8325 en-route CDG...
2. G-EZUT arriving LGW as EZY 8324 ex CDG with Ben at the controls...
3. We will get the images framed up for Ben; here's what we plan on giving him...
Cheers for now...
