THE PANDA EXPRESS
Posted: Tue Dec 06, 2011 10:41 pm
Arriving at Edinburgh Airport on the 4th of December, just after 13:00 and a long haul 11hr 58minute flight was FEDEX flight 9750, a specially chartered cargo Boeing B777 freighter. The 'PANDA EXPRESS' as it commonly known was delivering Edinburgh's newest residents; Two Giant Pandas; Tian Tian (aka Sweetie) and Yang Guang (aka Sunshine) from Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport, China. The pair are the first giant pandas to live in the UK for 17 years;

After all the PANDAmonium - I will get my coat! :bonk: The Fedex B777-FS2 sat on the threshold of the spare runway at Edinburgh. These were a couple of long exposures taken just a few minutes after sunrise;

As always, thanks for looking!
