Sécurité Civile

Dash 8-Q400 are a common sight around Madeira, since most days we have one, twice, from SATA, operating from and to Ponta Delgada and Las Palmas. Today we got a different one, a French Q400

Air Nostrum Late Takeoff

Yesterday there was a Fokker 100 from Carpatair scheduled to come to Madeira, with FC Porto team to play against União da Madeira, a local football team. However, due to strong winds the plane wasn't able to land and diverted to Porto Santo. In the meantime, the match was canceled, and the Fokker depart today around 9AM, to Oporto, without coming to Madeira. Hope better luck next time!

So, to end the month I'll go to the archive and bring another rear engine aircraft, this time a Bombardier from Air Nostrum, that has done a late takeoff, making possible these photos with the terrain on the background.

Bombardier Learjet 40

Some shots that I have taken this morning to a Portuguese Learjet 40 from Omni Aviação e Tecnologia, on the arrival. It departed about 2 hours ago on a medical flight, heading to Lisbon Airport.

20 years of Air Nostrum

Today's Air Nostrum, a little bit different than the normal thing. Besides the new livery, it has also stickers celebrating the 20th anniversary of the company.
