In august I made a 4 day spotting trip to London Heathrow, from the 16th untill the 20th. The aircraft we wanted to see where the black NZ 773, skyteam Saudi, F1 Etihad, MH a380 and much more we don’t see here at Schiphol. I’ve been to LHR before and you never get bored here. I’m trying to give you an overall impression of the days I was there.
1. One of the Dove’s, this one is a ex-BMI aircraft.
2. It’s a regular, but these birds are always welcome.
3. El Al 747 with “Haifa” titles.
4. BA’s new 777-300.
5. American Airlines pink ribbon scheme.

7. ‘The Firefly’ arriving on runway 27L.

Fab bunch of photos. Pick of the bunch has to be the Gulf Air A330 in the Formula 1 livery…the Red makes it so striking! 🙂
