Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Luton 16 and 17-07-2018

Post by LifelinerOne »

Hej everybody,

after the RIAT, my son and I drove back to Luton for the flight back home. When arriving at the airport we received notice that our flight would be delayed for an hour. Not a big deal. However, after an extra delay of 45 minutes the flight got cancelled... This meant we were booked by easyJet in the Ibis Budget and were rebooked for the next day.

As always I like Luton, not as a passenger though, but as a spotter. There's always something interesting to catch. Here are some of the more interesting things seen.

1. BBJ3 VP-CKK was parked and glowing in the sunset:

2. Pretty G650 T7-GTS, which was recently registered:

3. This BBJ1 N839BA is from Boeing and has brought the executives of the company to the Farnborough International Airshow.

4. My personal highlight of Luton is this very pretty Gulf 4 5N-PZE:

5. The executives of Textron/Cessna that visited Farnborough flew with this Cessna 750X N509CX:
