Photo of the Day 29th May 2026.

Side view of a 3 engined jet airliner flying from right to left at a low altitude, with undercarriage already tucked away, flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and the nose raised significantly, suggesting that it has just taken off. The plane is mostly white, with a grey belly, and dark blue "Lufthansa Cargo" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and the black registration "D-ALCD" next to a small German flag on the lower rear. The tail and centre engine pod are dark blue, with a yellow circle containing a stylised blue flying bird in the middle. The engine pods mounted under the wings are grey, as are the up-turned wing-tips. Pale blue sky with grey fluffs of cloud fill the rest of the frame. — D-ALCD, McDonnell Douglas MD-11F, Lufthansa Cargo, climbing out of Runway 23 Right at Manchester Airport, 24th August 2015, as seen from one of the South Side mounds.
