Photos from Keflavík and Update on First Flying in Japan

Although we have seen all three of the aircraft below in earlier blog posts, the location of the photographs is different, and they were nice shots. So below you'll find the delivery flights for 9A-TOC heading from the U.S. to Croatia, and for C-GLKB/C-GPOQ returning from Turkey to Canada.

You will also notice that these mark the switch in default size of the image here at TwinOtterSpotter, as I had done at Dash8Spotter yesterday. Moving forward the display size is smaller to accomodate the pending re-size of the width of the blog. The manual re-sizing of the existing photographs here at TOS is a monumental task, so it will be done working back in date order.

The two Series 400 delivered to First Flying in Japan continue flight training duties in preparation for their official service entry. While JA202D has been based at Kagoshima on Kyushu, JA201D has been at Okinawa's Naha Airport, and both will enter service in August from Okinawa serving destinations in the Ryukyu chain.

JA201D is seen below at Naha on 14-Jul-2015 with thanks to Kihei Kitagawa.
