Down at Prestwick for the third time this week, seems that there have been a number of reasons for going – today it was a Covid-19 test for the wife (A pretty fair swap I might add). What was going on, not really a lot. There was an Austrian PC-12 and a Cargolux 74F, the one with a facemask over the nose.

The Camera had got its self into a strange mode and by the time I sorted it out, I’d missed any chance of a decent sot of the Cargolux. That about covers Prestwick off this afternoon, I was only there for around 20 minutes so not too bad when all is said and done.

There was a C-12 hiding somewhere, but I couldn’t find it – mainly because of the time that I had available. Not too many years ago I’d have set off on foot to have a look for it, but with things the way they are and the fact that I was time challenged I decided to let things lie and catch it another time.

There were probably seven or eight other spotters down there at the SAL gate, but there weren’t any that I knew. Still that is the way things are now, the old familiar faces are getting fewer and fewer.
