RE: **Guess the Airline and Aircraft #2**
Just a bit of useless info for those of you who weren’t sure of the aircraft type..
You can tell it is a 767 because of the way the main underacrriage hangs forward. This is because the centre of gravity on a 767 would not allow the more conventional undercarriage which lies backwards such as that on 747s etc so Boeing designed the undercarriage in this way. Also, for T5, the 737 only has one axle on each main bogie.

The 767, what a fine aircraft!

Sorry Saab, it is indeed an Excel Airways.
T5…you were right the first time…it is a 762. The aircraft, along with another, was loaned from Air Atlanta Icelandic last summer to cope with demand for high density routes. This picture is taken on the approach to London Gatwick I believe.

Yup… it’s definitely Excel (http://www.airliners.net/open.file?id=221491) It’s also a 738 not a 762.
