Taken 16/11/07. http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t301/stregaVW/vt-alj.jpg Dreadful livery. They should do away with the Red window frame and have a bigger cheat line.

Phil 0 Report post Posted April 2, 2008 Dreadful livery. They should do away with the Red window frame and have a bigger cheat line. The coporate logo should be extended like the new QF one. I have to disagree I'm afraid Nick, the window frames are a great part of the original scheme, agree the cheat line should be more prominant but the rest is just lovely, it's only my humble opinion though.......... More to come soon guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted April 2, 2008 Excellent shots, Phil, brings back memories of my visit last monday !!! Unfortunately, runways in use were 09L (landing) and 09R (take-off), making it extremely difficult for photography, at least for me as no LHR-resident However, due to new "Open Skies", more colourful airlines now visit LHR i.s.o LGW, like CO, DL and NW to name a few Hope to meet you in May for a re-trial of aircraft-photography...
