TUIfly's ''Glücksbring Air'' and other traffic

Hi!
From the five logojet that Tuifly has,I only got two the D-AHFM and D-AHFY. As far as I know they are; ''GlücksbringAir'' D-AHZF, New VW Sharan D-AHFB, Haribo Goldbären D-ATUD, Haribo D-AHFM, Karten D-AHFY
So with this in mind I went to the airport expecting to catch a ''logojet'' from Tuifly, and guess what, one of them appeared, it was the D-AHFZ for me the second best color scheme right behind the golden Haribo.
Now the photos.

Spotting @ LPMA 14 / 08 / 10

Here's some photos from this Saturday afternoon, this time from Madeira airport and not Lisbon, because this month of August I'm at Madeira island on vacation.
It was a really nice afternoon although the wind was a bit strong, which made the approach to LPMA a little bit tricky for the pilots.

This one made the bumpiest approach of the afternoon due to the strong wind.
Preparing the aircraft to spend a few days at Madeira.
