Fabulous selection. Obvs the 727 is great, but there's plenty of other interesting aircraft there, and well shot too.

an amazing set Dan , Nick beat me to the 727 but what an incredible number of special schemes,- they must save them for the LAX routes!

so your first set had a swan and this included donald duck - do you have a continuing bird theme? If so what next?

great set and thanks for sharing them (and there are lots more good ones in your flickr album too - what a trip).

Hi Will,

The on ground and departures are taken from the well known Imperial Hill (Clutters Park) The Arrivals taken from Joe's airport parking, Beware some locals told me that they had been kicked out from the car park however I spent 7 hours a day for 3 days up there and never had a problem. I went down one level from the top and positioned myself in the left hand corner partially out of view because of some big 4x4's. I was cautious however not to hide as to make myself look suspicious. The workers occasionally drive around and I had one employee talk to me quickly (Don't ask what about he only spoke Spanish so I don't have a clue). Toilets are inside the Sheraton (through the doors, turn right and they are just past a small shop in the lobby) Subway for lunch is at the enterance of the Car park too. Any other questions ask away and ill answer them the best I can :D
