Only about a month old and just pushed back from Heathrow's 'November' stands in this view, the reg was presumably meant to look like 'Quiet'! Re-reg G-MANO in Nov 94 and after use by BA Regional, flew to Bucharest-Bãneasa on 30.4.07 for freighter conversion, following which it went into service with West Air Europe

During the period of the Iran-Iraq war, we were fortunate at LHR that Saddam's mighty Il-76s were frequent visitors. After being evacuated to Iran during the first Gulf War in 1991, this one was put into service by the Iranian AF in a two-tone grey camo scheme but grounded at Shiraz in the early 2000s

Recovery continues. When I took the pic, the question "would you fly BA in a 777 tomorrow?" was doing the rounds. Yes, of course.

Looking extremely shiny, this 707 was obtained from Qantas in 3.79 and was the last to be retired by the RAAF in a celebration on 30.6.08. A week later it was towed to the 33 Sqdn hangar at Richmond and parked with the other withdrawn 707s. See my also 1972 shot as VH-EAD

The fourth F-27 built, delivered to Aer Lingus on 19.11.58 as EI-AKB, also served Philippine A/l, Alia, Spantax, Aviaco and WDL before becoming the first large aircraft with Manx in 9.82. Went on to Loganair in 9.83 and back to WDL in 1986. Wfu and used for fire practice at Västerås 4.96. I reckon it looked gorgeous in the Manx colours, like it must have done way back in the old Aer Lingus scheme

Seen here arriving from Accra in a revision of her original colours, this VC-10 was the first of two accepted by Ghana on 27.1.65. Free demonstration flights were given to locals, many of whom had never been on a plane before. The VC-10 had a profound effect on the nation's culture and even had a type of dress named after it. Wfu and ferried from Heathrow to Prestwick in 12.80. After storage, broken up in 1983

Rather more modern than the last aircraft from the Hellenic AF transport squadron, 354 Mira, that I last uploaded (a Noratlas). This unusual visitor arrived in appalling weather a day earlier - fortunate it night-stopped

Rather more modern than the last aircraft from the Hellenic AF transport squadron, 354 Mira, that I last uploaded (a Noratlas). This unusual visitor arrived in appalling weather a day earlier - fortunate it night-stopped

The pair of Yugoslav An-12s were regular Heathrow visitors in the mid-Eighties on the weekly JAT freight run, later contracted out to, amongst others, Air Bridge using Electras. Note the Yugoslav AF serial also carried; this aircraft was manufactured in 1971 but tragically crashed into a road bridge on finals to Yerevan on 12.12.88 with 8,388 hrs and 4,727 cycles recorded, ironically in view of the aircraft's registration carrying aid for the victims of the earthquake

I recently had the pleasure of photographing this much-loved machine in its current Euro Atlantic colours, but there are literally hundreds of images of her in those colours on the net, so here's something different. Bought by Tajikistan International 6.7.95, but repossessed by TAP only a month later

To Jet East as N727JE in 1.84 and used by DHL from 8.87, registered N701DH in 8.90. Sold to Cosmos Colombia as HK-4407 in 4.06 and was one of two 727 freighters with this new company, but scrapped (as N727NA) in 2014

Initially intended for Northwest Orient, this DC-8 in fact went to Trans Caribbean as N8780R in 11.61 and then to Eastern in 1.64. Interswede took her for three months (as SE-DCR) in 11.71; she returned to that part of the world with Karair in 6.72. On lease to Cyprus Airways at the time of this shot (pure co-incidence that the last thing I uploaded before this was a Cyprus DC-8), she was wfu at Brussels in 2.85 and scrapped three months later
