  1. Great pics, what time does CP normally land at MAN and was this just a one off landing or is this type going to be used on the service

  2. There are two per week, not sure of timings at the moment but one is daylight and the other is in the dark during winter,
    The B747-800 should be doing all the flights from now on.
