I passed the airport twice last week and the Small Planet B 733 was parked up on both occasions.

The second time I managed to get a reasonably close look and the livery is quite eye-catching, in a sort of nursery school way.

Have you been having a wee Christmas dram.

The chance would be a fine thing. :beer:

To me it looks like the sort of design that a teacher might draw on an aeroplane picture for nursery kiddies.

Perhaps Postman Pat might have a mate called Pilot Pete who could fly it.

I note the Small Planet B 733 which is based at BRS this winter worked a Santa flight today to Enontekio.

Makes a change from The Thomas Cooks, Thomsons and Monarchs that have been doing these flights this year, although today a Jet2 B 733 did a Rovaniemi.
