Fantastic! I had a nice flight over the Canyon last year: http://www.egphforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=458 Can't beat it. I'm off to LGW this coming weekend, easyJet from EDI. Then ARN in June (SAS). Italy planned for Aug/Sept (EZY EDI-MXP outbound, returning VCE-LGW-EDI with BA).

Well I have more Dublin, maybe a few STNs, certainly Milan (again), Minneapolis (systems upgrade), plus whatever else comes my way. Might hit the 50 flights mark this year, you never can tell.

But most of my London stuff has been right beside (or in) LHR. Basing myself in DUB for a few weeks now so might get a change of scenery.
