Fokker 100 (9A-BTE) & Bombardier DHC-8-402 Dash 8 Q400 (9A-CQE)
Croatia's only two surviving airlines - Trade Air and Croatia Airlines - meet and greet in... Munich. Flying to Tirana (TIA/LATI) on behalf of Slovenian carrier Adria Airways, BTE had been sitting here with her passengers on board for four hours now, waiting for its turn to be de-iced at one of Munich's remote de-icing stands.
Being a turboprop however, CQE could be cleaned up where it stood, meaning it would leave home for Zagreb (ZAG/LDZA) only 1 hour and 20 minutes late. One-nil for propellers!
