Blueline MD83 U2 Colours 27/6/2009


Not been doing much photography for a while, but thought I would share this arrival at Robin Hood Doncaster with you. Aircraft was used by U2 on their 360 tour to promote their latest album. Operating the Lourdes flight for Hallamshire Diocese. Two departures 0930 & 1700.
Something different for us. Not seen many photos of this posted so may be new to some of you guys. Hope to get out more in the near future.
Cheers
Stuart

Thanks for the comments guys. It certainly was a smoker. Think it may have woken up the residents also!!!

Judging by the exhaust you’d be forgiven for thinking it WAS a Tupolev. Nice capture.

I know its not an Antonov, Ilyushin or a Tupolev, but I really like the MD80 Srs and that livery is just great on one. Thanks for posting 🙂
