Good to see a 76 in this part of the world nowadays - one of three re-engined Volga-Dnepr machines that can still operate in the west without the need for special exemption. Note the '20 years' markings, carried on the tail instead on the other side

The former I-DEMU had only just been acquired by ONA when shot and it seems they hadn't had time to paint it yet - not too often you see an airliner in passenger service wearing nothing more than primer! After a lease to CAAC, became G-VGIN in 1.86 then 5N-EEE with Kabo in 10.01; stored at Marana from 10.07

The former G-ASJH is seen here after preparation for a new carrier in California, soon after the demise of Laker. Pacific Express intended to offer high frequency, low fare service in the LA-SFO corridor, but PSA objected as they used that name for their small package service. Flights were however operated to 22 cities in California and the Northwest, latterly as Pan Am Pacific Express, till bankruptcy in 2.84

Recently adopting special Unicef markings, this 737 was already on the list of interesting NAX colour scheme variations in the previous "most flexible way to travel" marks. Temperature below zero, but rewarded by great light.

Modern Air Transport had a base at Berlin Tegel and three of their eight Coronados were at LGW for a West Germany-England soccer match that wet day. The 1973 oil crisis was a blow for these thirsty jets, not helped by rules to fly at a fuel-inefficient height of 10,000ft in the Allied air corridors over East Germany. Modern hoped to switch to DC-8s and DC-9s but ceased flying in 1975. N5624 went to Nomads as N990E, then Galaxy. Wfu at FLL in 12.85, to Christ is the Answer in 1990 - obviously not as scrapped 4.91

Part of a $500m re-branding project by Pepsi Cola included this spectacular Concorde repaint, which lasted for just 10 days at the beginning of April 1996. 2,000 hours of painting work were needed at Orly for the surprise unveiling at Gatwick on 2.4.96, in the presence of a number of show business and sports stars. A promotional tour of 10 cities across Europe and the Middle East followed. Supersonic flight above M1.70 over 20 mins in the blue paintwork was not allowed due to heat concerns
