Do you mean an exclusive Farnborough air show at the end of the year for example or at the main one in July 2004, 9 months after the aircraft is withdrawn from public service?
Too big for an A320 without a doubt, more like a 777 I’d say?
Not too good on classic airliners, unfortunately. However, the BAC 1-11 is an aircraft I like the look of, it’s a more modern, classic jet if you get what I mean… shame it’s not too popular amongst other members on the forum. :rolleyes:
My final coursework deadling is Friday and I have heaps of work to do still. I’ve come on the computer now to get some research done and look at me…

I heard that they were to fly 4 together in a low flight fly pass, but it was not decided as to where this would be done?
I don’t think that is likely to happen. Last month’s Airliner World showed a photograph of 5 or 6 Concordes flying in formation and the caption was something like “never to be repeated..” Mind you, this was written before the announcment that Concorde would be withdrawn from service.
I like these photos we are seeing of “heavies”, another great photograph from Joe Pries, too!
China Airlines has a great colour scheme, the blue streak from the front to the back of the aircraft’s fuselage and the red flower on the tail, one of my favourites.
The A346 is just toooooooooooooooooooooo long though.
Some nice photos, the B-HOY registration is a good one and the colour scheme is indeed, “Classy”.
I would have said the first was the better one. When you scan the photo in, that’s gone from negative to paper and then scanned in. With the CD, it’s negative and scanner, no paper whatsoever, so you don’t lose much (if any) of the quality.
Film scanners are great, I’ve got a Microtek Filmscan 35, it’s only £130 (about the cheapest available) and is also available, exactly the same model, under the Jessops brand but at £10 less. I find colour negatives and slide (positive film) extremely easy to scan but black and white is extremely hard and requires patience!
Great photos, the second one is brilliant with its fierce sky!
Nice photo, it’s a shame these aircraft don’t prove to be popular sellers in the rest of the world.
If it is quite so pricey for the flights, perhaps you find another way of getting to Manchester – Coach with National Express? Trains?
Thanks Preston,
QC is this Quick Change version of the 737 isn’t it?
I was reading about it in Airliner World just a couple of months back and was fascinated that within an hour, a cargo aircraft could become a fully equipped passenger cabin and vice versa.
The link posted above shows a great colour scheme – was this designed or even considered by Air India or is it just somebody playing around to see what they can create?
Whatever the reason, it’s great – the colours and graphics are very bright and bold and just what Air India need.
