Originally Braniff's N603BN for a little over a year before becoming a very large executive jet!

This aircraft was registered to Global Air Leasing Pty Ltd as VH-OZX on 22 March 2000 but at the time of this photo the registration had not yet been applied. It eventually spent quite a while dormant at Brisbane after original plans for future use failed to eventuate. Became D6-OZX in July 2001.

Arriving at Gatwick after its overnight flight from Dallas-Fort Worth.

This was originally delivered in April 1980 as N604BN to Braniff. It was last operated by Yemenia/ Yemen Government but was destroyed on the ground during fighting on 19th Mar 2015 at Aden.

Operated for Qatar Government

N150UA on approach to Runway 07. United's 747SPs looked as good as new compared with what they looked like at Pan Am, which had allowed its aircraft to become grimy and oil stained.
