It was delightful to have the opportunity to shoot this superbly preserved VEB-built Il-14 in such nice conditions, well worth the 130km drive from Berlin. Once displayed in Interflug colours at the Halle ice stadium after being written off in a hard landing, it became derelict and was on the verge of being scrapped before being rescued by the Technik-Museum Hugo Junkers and restored in the colours of East Germany's Deutsche Lufthansa, the forerunner of Interflug

The swan song of the Jaguar in RAF service. Taken from VC-10 XV107 over the North Sea, this 41 Sqdn machine was first flown on 12.5.76 and went to DARA St Athan on 29.9.05 for spares recovery. Behind is XZ364; with the closure of RAF Coltishall the final Jaguar unit, 6 Sqdn, disbanded in 2007

The former Bu No. 160754 joined the RAAF 27.5.78 seen here on a rare visit to the UK while with 10 Sqdn before the marks were toned down. On 26.4.91 she ditched in a lagoon in the Cocos Islands just off the beach. Attempts to drag the aircraft out of the water failed and the wreck was cut up and eventually dumped at sea, although Air Force personnel made several visits for about a year to retrieve parts. The nose was initially preserved on the islands and the tail became a memorial back at RAAF Edinburgh

Three VC-10s sharing Heathrow's 'Hotel' stands, just days before East African Airways was dissolved. First flying in 2.70, 5H-MOG was the last one built and was latterly the RAF 101 Sqdn's K.3 ZA150, scrapped in 2013. Note 5th engine pod. Behind is the penultimate one built, 5X-UVJ, which became ZA149 and coincidentally made the penultimate flight of the type into Dunsfold for the Brooklands Museum on 24.9.13 (my photos also on AH)
