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.

Heathrow - LHR - Civil - 28/8/12

Post by Indiaecho »

Hi,

Here are some photos from a trip to Heathrow back in the summer.

I think the 777-300 looks great in BA livery:-

More 777 action was provided by Turkish:-

The Turkish was followed by a Singapore A380:-

You can't beat the 747 in my book though - here is Cathay Pacific's B-HKT:-

One of the more unexpected visitors was Royal Air Maroc 767 CN-RNT:-

Iberia send an A340 on the evening service from Madrid. It was -600 model EC-INO operating the service during my visit:-

It is a pity that the Firefly livery has already been extinguished by BA:-

G-DBCA became the last British Midland aircraft I saw:-

As it got dark, there was a flurry of aircraft from the former Soviet republics, with Uzbekistan Airlines, Turkmenistan Airlines and Azerbaijan Airlines all arriving within a few minutes of each other:-

I hope the phots are of interest - loads more can be found at http://www.flickr.com/photos/indiaecho/

During my visit, the Daily Telegraph showed up to make a short film about the spotters at the airport:- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIKsnoutspY. I can be briefly seen trying to avoid the camera at 1:08!!

Gelukkig Nieuwjaar.

Nice light on the Azerbaijan Airbus. And pictures from LHR are always wellcome, fur sure.
And a tip: Next time you post, choose at Flickr.com with tab "Share" : large size 1024 (1024x768) and than edit.
