Quiet a few interesting and unusual visitors to Doncaster Airport this month. Here's a few of the highlights:

IL-62, second visit in the month on the 30th October (and fourth visit of the year)

very nice Lee, spoilt again at Doncaster this month.

As nick said the '62 landing is excellent.

That Saudi 747 could do with a tidy up, looks like it's seen much better days

thanks for posting them

I think the Saudi 747 is in the Air Livery hangar at Manchester having a paint job.

Great to see former Soviet types still coming to these shores.
