Planes with a bit of a quiz...

Postby Mictheslik » Mon Dec 17, 2007 10:43 am

OK....I've been out in my back garden to take advantage of the clear weather and got a few London and Bristol bound airliners, some higher than others.

Your challenge is to correctly name the type and airline of each aircraft...some are much easier than others ;)
