Il-62 at LHR and other South East stuff

There were interesting aircraft at Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted over the past few days which amazingly managed to coincide with some decent weather for a change. Also managed to get to LCY to do a late evening shot which I have been wanting to do for a while.

I wish I was 15ft tall so I could see over that fence!

My first shot of this great livery

This Tu-154 was a welcome surprise visitor to Gatwick on 14/05

NWA 757’s are now regulars at Gatwick now that their A330’s go to LHR, I will be sorry to see this nice livery go.

Sorry if this is in the wrong place being military but it did turn up at Stansted, strange to see a C130 in an airliner livery!

The light is only right for this shot at LCY either very early in the morning or late evening in the summer but worth the effort I think

After spending the morning at Gatwick on the 14th it was a wizz around the M25 to LHR for the Il-62. The light was not ideal by the time it eventually turned up so the pic is not great, nice to see this old smokey all the same
