Well this was taken in July in a A330...

Got bored, and took a photo...what surprises me is, very close!

P.s Quality Bad, I give permission to save and zoom and have a closer look, but please dont edit.

Now what do you reckon it is?....I think its a Virgin 747

not sure which exact model? Take some guesses!...




Cheers

A zoomed in Photo For you all. (Advice, put your head away further from the screen)

Tail looks blue to me. So it could be either a United 747 in new colours. Or a BA 747

Could well be....I think the Quality is very poor, so its anyones Guess.

The blue belly aswell makes it almost certainly not a virgin 747. Where was it taken?

Over the Atlantic towards the US.

(Maybe my Eyes are Wierd...??...Somtimes colours look different to me, even after a friday night)!

AND another Pic....



....any difference?

Might not be any of them,,

AND another Pic....

Now now.....let me reply to my boring thread...we have an update!

LOL

I think its a BA 747...

Due to the ribbon on the side of the Aircraft, i think its SLIGHTLY visible on the side....can you see the "Scribble"?

The blue tail (with globe on the tail) and white body sure looks close to a Continental 767...but in the third pic it looks like a Chinca Airlines 747, hard to tell

I was about to say a Continental plane, but wait, they dont have 747s!  Anyways, my guess is Lufthansa British Airways!

I'm going with the British Airways guess. It all seems to fit from the blue bottom, to the coloured tail to the faint swoosh on the side in the final picture.

Thereby eliminating any gain brought by zooming in in the first place?

It looks very much like a BA 747 with one of them 'orrible tails to me, probably a 400 but what would I know about such things? Bring back the Union Jack I say. Good Old Maggie. Hip, Hip, Hoooray.

Had this been a Tiger Moth I could probably tell you the registration, where it's based & who owns it.

Ha ha ...Cheers for that good old Laugh Doug!

And for some reason, i really believe you!

And YES i reccomend to look away from the screen, the pixels are horrid, kind of reminds me of the graph paper you used to get at school!
