Civilian Aviation

Also covered previously by member BHX01 but had to post a shot of my catch of the year, the Samaritan's Purse DC-8-72CF departing Birmingham after overnighting en-route from Aqaba to Greensboro, North Carolina.

I think it's about 9 years since I last saw a DC-8!

Great sight and sound starting up. Well worth the impromptu cheeky half-day from work!

Great catch and shot

Can't disagree with that, would be my best catch too!

A lovely aircraft and a nice photo of it.
