As Biman stops flying to MAN for the winter, this was my last chance to see my favourite trijet in action until next May. Seen arriving up-close on 06R and then taxiing past after dusk and roaring down 06L. Apologies for the takeoff shot, my hands were shaking with cold! Enjoy this beautiful beast.

First time at MAN for Aeroflot cargo DC10-40F. Landing and departure captured.

I hope you like this one. Viewed from Ringway Road my favourite jet flies over, delighting the 20-or-so spectators who were watching arrivals with me. Then, 1hr 15 mins later she fogs up her engines, powers down 24L and roars overhead. What a beautiful and elegant airliner the DC-10 is!

Don't get many of these at MAN nowadays. Operating for My Travel because I believe one of their A330s is out of service.

Thanks to its early arrival, after weeks of late departures I finally managed to get Biman taking off past the Viewing Park on 24R. Nice how the sun came out too, I must say I do love the DC-10 with a passion!

2 hours and 45 minutes behind schedule! This beauty is seen landing up-close on 06R and then taxiing past and taking off on 06L... watch how her engines fog up on takeoff. Apologies for the poor takeoff shot- the winds and light would have been more favourable if she'd been on time!

The prototype Northrop/McDonnell Douglas YF-23 Black Widow II is Aircraft Fighter who has competed with the YF-22 Lightening II. Both Fighters commpeted for the ATF proget, and the YF-22 Lightning II was selected as the ATF winner, and then they made the final version of the YF-22, the F-22 Raptor. But that doesn't.... more
