TP49 to Madeira


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

Yep, you guessed it. The flight was in a TapA321 (haha, what a coinsidence!) The flight was from London Gatwick to Funchal, Madeira. I'm sure all of you are aware of the approach into Funchal, and having practiced it many a time, I think I have finally mastered it!

Straight into the approach at Funchal, a little disappointed with the weather! :yikes:

Relying on the reversers to stop us before the cliff-edge!

Hope you enjoyed the flight! Comments are, as always, welcome! :-)

They are really excellent Tap :yikes:

I must say the standard of your shots is really raises the bar for the rest of us.

That approach into Funchal is one of my favourites. The "Wonderful Madeira" scenery is well worth the money.

Thanks for posting,

Cheers
