First A320neo

Yesterday Madeira received it's very first A320neo, from Gatwick. Really nice engines, which suit him perfectly, and also, a really lovely sound, very similar to the one produced by General Electric's GE90. Unfortunately, no time to reach the other side of the airport, and I had to photograph it with backlight.
