ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

London Gatwick 13/7/11

Post by Indiaecho »

Hi,

I went over to London Gatwick on Wednesday, where there were several interesting aircraft. Titan 767 G-POWD was operating on behalf of British Airways:-

757 OH-AFL was operating the Iceland Express flights:-

UR-DAB provided some colour:-

I think Gatwick is now Easyjet's largest base - the sight of four of their Airbuses (Airbii?) wasn't unusual:-

Cubana IL-96 CU-T1250 was the highlight:-

Hi,

No sign of Hellenic Imperial, I'm afraid, either with their own metal or equipment leased from others.
