Civilian Aviation

I went to a cold but bright Stansted today to try to get some sunny shots of the Silkway 747 that has been evading me for a couple of years, the sun was superb for it's arrival but after a near 4 hour wait for it's departure the sun had moved round and cloud was coming in so I shall have to try again for that and hope it makes an earlier departure
