A380

Rear view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner facing directly away from the camera. The plane is almost entirely white, with a red band around the rear fuselage, with a green and black diagonal stripe visible on the tail, and a red patch under the body. A large engine under each of the massive wings (and another engine further out on each side) match the planes humungous fuselage and tail, and somehow manage to make the trees in the background seem small. Shooting through a chainlink fence results in some slight vignetting in the bottom half of the frame. Cloudy grey sky with streaks of blue fill the rest of the frame.

On This Day 7th September 1996.Read More

Side view of a very large, 4 engined jet airliner taxiing from left to right along a black taxiway. The plane is mostly white, with a thin, diagonal band running from under the forward fuselage, just aft of the nose-wheel, to over the top of the centre-fuselage, just aft of the wings, and large, green "PIA" titles on the side of the forward fuselage, between the upper and lower passenger decks, partially covering some of the lower deck windows. There is some ornate Arabic calligraphy on the upper forward fuselage, just below and aft of the cockpit, which takes the name of the airline in Arabic and turns it into a piece of art. There is a waving green flag on the white tail, with a white star and crescent moon in the centre. Damp, black apron fills the foreground, with a multitude of airliners, mostly white with orange, blue, green, and red highlights, parked in the background, mostly facing to the right, but a couple on the right of the frame are facing left. Tall lighting poles are dotted around the planes in the background, reaching up to the sky. Trees in the distance give way to a rolling landscape, with buildings and more trees leading off to the horizon, meeting cloudy grey skies.

Side view of a high-winged, twin propellor-engined airliner taxiing from left to right along a taxiway hidden behind some grass. The plane is white, with a pale blue belly, and light and dark blue "FlyBe" titles above a series of 6 coloured dots - 2 yellow, 2 red, and 2 purple. Larger, light and dark blue titles adorn the white tail and rear fuselage, with the black registration "G-ECOC" on a fillet at the front of the tail. There is the light blue text "WWWDotFlyBeDotCom"on the sides of the engine pods, under the wings, the engine pods also have pale blue undersides. A large grassed area fills the foreground, with more grass in the background, leading up to a white and yellow jet airliner, which in on an unseen runway, but appears to be on top of our plane. Rows of trees in the distance meet blue-grey skies.
