Madrid-Barajas MAD Pics Review 11/23 (Many Pics!)

[Iberia A340-600]

I've been spending the week here in Madrid and decided to rent a car today and head out to find an arrival spot. I have lived in Madrid for a year before but never had shot arrivals so I figured I'd spend most of the day doing so.

Josh May, I got the Cubana IL-96 biotch. :borat:

Believe it or not I bring bad weather to Madrid. The past three years that I have been visiting Madrid during this time of year I always bring the rain. Today I lucked out!

[T-Bird76]

Gordan top notch! A bit overboard wit the IB A340's but man the IL96 is hot **** along with the Avianca 762!

[CX777]

Gordon, excellent stuff.... I am afraid to think what you will be at 21 :!: (thats when I started) Your stuff is simply amazing..keep up the good work and give me a ring if you R driving EAST for BDL before Christmas. (I leave for India in late Dec for 3 weeks).

Tommy, I was waiting for someone to mention my haven of Iberia A340s. ;)

It was just amazing have 3xA340-600s follow each other!

Thanks, Raj! I'll certainly give you a call if I'm heading up that way and enjoy your trip to India.

Beautiful shots Gordon!
Do Ryanair fly to Barajas or was it a diversion or something similar? I thought they fly to some airfield 500miles out of MAD...

[ChrisW]

Gordon,

Excellent shots bud. Keep up the great work!

Tons and Tons of Ryanair to MAD. I saw at least 6 737-800s arrive throughout the day.

INNflight,
Ryanair flies to Madrid-Barajas and should be one of the few international airports in their network. I think that besides Dublin, Manchester and Madrid, Ryanair only offers flights to regional airports.

Excellent shots Gordon!
I love the Cubana Il-96 shots! The il-96 is veeery nice :borat: haha I need to go down to MAD someday and catch that.
Glad you had a fun trip.

Ahh! A BAe 146!! I'm going to have to get over to the other side of the pond before those all go away...

[G-BOAD]

The 5th photo of the Vueling, with the clouds is really nice!
Also the Egypt Air 320 is a nice catch.
