Original image appeared in a previous 'Wrecks & Relics' back in June 2012.
Replaced with this image of DH.106 Comet 4 (LV-AHN) taken at Lasham 27th August 1972 b/u by Dan-Air for spares use and remains apparently burnt on site.

This is a partially complete Let L-610 at the Kunovice Air Museum in the Czech Republic in 2013.
This one still retains signs of Aeroflot livery as they were intended to be the type's launch customer; however, the end of Socialism intervened and no alternate buyers were found for the L-610.

I have very few shots that fit into this category so I will go with this one:

Good luck all.

New Airbus A340 F-GNIA of Air France at Paris Charles de Gaulle 12th March 1994. Lesson, if you sack a cleaner don't let them on your aircraft with a trolley of flammable liquid.
