MAN 28th October 2019 - Etihad B787-9 A6-BND

Another chance to try and catch a shot of the Etihad B787-9 A6-BND in Manchester City colours, sadly the sun had different ideas ..... whilst it flew all the way down the approach in the sunshine the cloud blocked it out just as it got level with me!!

At least this shot will do until another opportunity arises!!
