Not really the time to have been messing around experimenting with low shutter speeds to blur the background, but I guess it didn't seem so special then. Simple history - to Iraqi 13.5.66 and wfu Baghdad 6.77; all three Iraqi Tridents presumed b/u, although one fuselage survived till at least 2003 on a training ground

Making a 10L arrival at LHR in the old colours, this 1968-vintage 707 passed to the Argentine AF in 1.82. Studies as a result of the Falklands War that year led to her undergoing ELINT conversion by IAI in 1986, in the process changing serial from TC-93 to VR-21, and flew from El Palomar AB, west of Buenos Aires in a later grey colour scheme. Seen wfu and engineless in 2013

Olympic was the first customer to operate this 707 from new in 5.66 when she was registered as SX-DBB, with Alia acquiring her in 3.75. Went to the boneyard at Davis Monthan in 1992 after purchase by the USAF and eventually became a GE-8C instructional airframe at Robins AFB, using an FY 66 serial relating to its year of production (66-30052)

After her first 14 years spent with KLM as "Sir Isaac Newton", this DC-8 was sold to Viasa in 1975. Although bought by Aeronaves del Peru in 1984, she remained in store at Opa-locka as was broken up next year. We take for granted nowadays a choice of views to shoot thanks to zoom lenses, but it occurs to me that the angle here was forced by my old fixed 200mm

Seen drifting in for a very flat landing on LHR's 10L, this IL-18 entered service with LOT in 10.65 but was sold to Balkan as LZ-BEZ in 1992. She took up a Sharjah-based career in 1998 with various operators and was re-registered from UN-75002 to UP-I1802 in 12.08. Noted stored Berbera, Somalia in 2013 but not since

Not at all familiar under the Douglas registration, this 1966-built DC-9 will be much better remembered as G-BMAA, although till 3.80 the reg G-BFIH was used. Formerly N8964 of Continental, then TC-JAA, XA-DEV, YV-C-AVC and YV-52C. To Intercontinental Colombia as HK-3827X in 3.93. Airline grounded 6.04 and aircraft seized 2.05; moved from BOG in 12.14 to Manizales and set up as 'Mayday Restaurant'

Originally Air Canada's CF-TLD in 2.66, the baby Nine served Southern and Finnair (OH-LYA) before acquisition by BMA in 9.83 and is seen here arriving on one of Heathrow's 'N' stands. Sold to Intercontinental Colombia 4.95 but wound up with TAESA as XA-SXS. This Mexican airline went under in 2000 but the fuselage remains in a compound near Toluca in their basic colours
