I'll kick this off and hope it meets the criteria.

Highland Express Boeing 747-123 G-HIHO at Prestwick 10th August 1987. I think they managed less than six months of service before the aircraft was repossessed by the lessor.

Re: Nov 2011 Spec Comp: Historic Cargo/Airlines
Evening
Just to blow the whole spirit of the competition & to come up with something a little out of the ordinary
Taken at Luton, early 70's, I have no idea by whom or with what camera (apart from the chain link fence 'filter'),
But it will raise a smile (I was out of the country at the time, so you can't blame me :-))
Have fun
Terry

AVENSA 737-229 at Miami in 1995, ex. OO-SDC of Sabena and first flew in 1974.
Trust me to go all that way to see a scabby old Sabena 737.

Re: Nov 2011 Spec Comp: Historic Cargo/Airlines
photo changed at Mike's request, one of British Air Ferries' last surviving carvairs (G-AOFW) may even have been the very last at Southend in the early '80s

Re: Nov 2011 Spec Comp: Historic Cargo/Airlines
I think this is the only shot I've got that fits the criteria. Taken at Southend Airshow 2007 with no lesser camera than a Concord eye-Q 4363Z (we've all heard of that haven't we!?), a compact purchased the day before, from Woolworths who have coincidentally gone the same way as all the airlines in this thread!
