Well, we’re into the new year, and whilst the presses have been quiet, There are a few things that have happened, so let’s look at them in Last Week at Economy Class and Beyond.
This week in “Pictures I took when walking in the cold from the office”, I’m at the Mailbox complex, looking down the Birmingham Canel (Old Line), facing towards Gas Street Basin.
It’s been more than a little quiet, I’ve chosen to have a little bit of a writing break too – which is nice occasionally when you work, blog and do photography.
Not covered
- I’ve chosen not to cover the accident this week, where three British Airways staff lost their lives in an accident near Heathrow Airport. However, their Go Fund Me is live if you wish to contribute

A Modelling Day Out
I’m still putting the bells and whistles on this trip report as it’s taken some time to process out the pictures for it. Good things come to those who wait…
Pretty pictures
Next Week
With the holiday season behind us, the aviation industry will be starting to work out what it wants to do, what it wants to promote and hopefully some interesting stories to cover. In addition, I’ll be continuing the Modelling Day out… once I’ve put all the images together for this.
