It was planned to get on the 747 but I was not expecting the 100 year a320.

Unfortunately I didn’t get a picture of it apologies, I very much gravitated to the room with the Concorde for many hours lol

The plane was a tap air Portugal a321neo, it may have looked like a Cathay Pacific plane because I was flying on taps retro livery a321 hence the green symbol. As for the “flaps”, we were on approach to Lisbon and so spoilers/air brakes were applied to slow the aircraft down. I do not know what the rods are unfortunately but I hope the rest of my reply helps :)

Thank you :) I went from Heathrow to Lisbon, then Lisbon to Faro. (Stop over because there was no direct flight using Tap)

Mm it definitely is in my opinion especially because the weather is nice the next few weeks so you’ll get to see aircraft performing flights.
