Overheard at Manchester Airport Viewing Park

So there I was at the Viewing Park at Manchester Airport among the assorted spotters, general onlookers, old couples and families when the middle aged man next to me says, to who I presume was his grandson, "If you're lucky you'll see Continental Airlines".

How times have changed. When I was kid I felt lucky when my grandfather gave me money or some sort of diabetes-inducing foodstuff. But seeing a Continental Airlines aircraft? I can only imagine what that grandfather/grandson comnination would be like at Newark!

Ta daaaaah.... it's Continental Airlines at Manchester:
