G-LOGK, British Aerospace Jetstream 4100, LoganAir, on final approach to Runway 24 at Manchester Airport, some time between February 1993 and April 1994.

On This Day 20th March 1992.

Slightly blurry side view of a white, twin engined BizJet taxiing from right to left. There is a thin blue stripe running along the body,. sweeping up to fill the rear of the tail. The same blue stripe fills the rear of the up-turned wingtips. The registration "N700KC" is on the side of the engine pods mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage. A grassed area and concrete apron fill the foreground, with more grass and a runway leading up to black hangars in the distance.

This looks to have been taken through the edge of the exhaust from another plane.

Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner flying from right to left at a low altitude, with undercarriage lowered and flaps extended from the rear of the wing, suggesting it is about to land. The plane has purple "Virgin Atlantic" titles running along the body, repeated along the planes underside, with red engine pods slung under the wings, and red rear fuselage and tail. There is seemingly hand-written white "Virgin" titles on the tail. Grey cloud fills the rest of the frame.
