A selection from Heathrow making use of the daylight before the latest Northolt Nightshoot. It was notable just how many A320neo and A321neo are in service now. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52821690158_1cef0ebf71_o.jpg Emirates SkyCargo 777-F1H by Nick Challoner , on Flickr https://live.stati...

Just a couple of print scans from me for now, but I hope to post some more soon: Aer Lingus One-Eleven 208AL EI-ANE at Birmingham International, August 1988: https://live.staticflickr.com/2947/32448856543_d847733ea1_o.jpg Aer Lingus One-Eleven 208AL by Nick Challoner , on Flickr Ryanair One-Eleven 5...

What a selection of colourful a/c. The variety of airlines at Heathrow is stunning.

There are some great angles there Andy, enhanced by the fact the landing gear is fully retracted, making the a/c look sleeker than in most shots us enthusiasts can get.

Love the shot of the two Metros with the Saab.

Shame the Air Canada was in Star Alliance livery rather than Air Canada's own. Still, nice to see.

That was the first Il-76 that I had seen close-up, and what a fantastic view it was.

It seems almost fanciful now to say that the only Il-76s I had seen previously were Iraqi Airways examples at Heathrow!

MPB are good, but it is worth shopping around. I sold an EOS 60D last year and Park Cameras offered me £30 more than MPB, with a similar level of good service (quick courier collection, inspection and payment).

Lovely shot, enhanced by Nauru Airlines' pretty livery.

777-2Q8ER VP-BAS landing 09L at Heathrow in 2004, in the rather attractive but short-lived Aeroflot livery from that period:

Some great memories there Craig, with some wonderful aircraft (well, perhaps not including the Short 360!). The ATA L-1011s looked fantastic in that colour scheme.

I agree with Paul, the shots of sunlit aircraft set against dark clouds really work well.

Fabulous shot of G-BXPI.

Great action shot of the An-26.

Beautiful vivid shots Andy. You can see the dinosaur ancestry really showing through in the Dunnock!

Some wonderful shots there, not least the Worldways DC-8. BHX had some excellent photography spots in the 1980s.

Fantastic frame-filling Electra shot.
