On This Day 12th April 1992.
33 years since my first ever flight!
G-BJXJ, Boeing 737-204, Britannia Airlines, about to taxi out to Runway 24 at Manchester Airport, 12th April 1992.
Photo taken from seat 29 F on board G-BMRJ, Boeing 757-236, British Airways, as we pushed back prior to taxiing out to Runway 24 for departure to London Heathrow.
I wasn't actually planning on going anywhere that day, but there was nothing going on at the airport, and I had a few days off work, and I managed to get a dirt cheap seat on this flight after I was bored enough to ask!

@mancavgeek@social.teamb.space My first was in G-ACIT from EGNH on Whit Saturday 1957. Ten minute "flip" around Blackpool Tower for 7/6d. G-ACIT is nowin a museum, Some say I should be as well!
