re: Rome "Leonardo da Vinci" Fiumicino FCO / Ciampino CIA
Please have a look to the propeller of the Darwin Dash 8-400: it seems suspended in the air!
And what do you think of the wonderful white-snow of Swiss A320? Marvellous!!!

re: Rome "Leonardo da Vinci" Fiumicino FCO / Ciampino CIA
i hate flying in turbo prop planes, i did it once once when flying between ZRH-LCY when swiss had the saabs in.
they are the worst thing to fly in during a cloudy day. i shudder ever time i see one....
Swiss is one beautiful livery, I love flying into Zurich and seeing them all ;-D. Swiss is my favourite airline by far.. its such a shame they have got rid of the cube.
The service is still excellent quality I must say though :-D

I flew only one time with a turboprop: Tyrolean Dash 8-100 between Vienna and Praga, many years ago. There was a lot of turbulence, and the flight was a disaster

By the way, I can see either the heat or the jetblast.. What temperature is it at Rome?

Normally Emirates flyes with the B777-300, but often it uses the A380. On Thursday it flyes with the A380 and the landing time is, more or less, around 1 pm.

The temperature is around 18 degrees, but it depends on what part of the day it is.
