The tiny titles under the 'British' say 'Part of Walker Aviation'...
British European was renamed FlyBe Airlines in Jul-02. This aircraft was still in the original Jersey European livery with British European titles and 'www.flybe.com' titles on the engines.
First flown with the Bombardier test registration C-FDHZ, this aircraft was delivered to a lessor and leased to British European Airways (not the BEA which had become part of British Airways) as G-JEDJ in Jan-02.
British European was renamed FlyBe Airlines in Jul-02. The aircraft was returned to the lessor in Jan-12 and stored at Exeter, UK. It was ferried to Toronto (Canada) in Aug-12 and returned to Bombardier Inc as C-GSVY.
It was sold to Nordic Aviation Capital A/S and leased to Eznis Airways (Mongolia) as JU-9917 in Feb-13. The aircraft was repossessed when Eznis ceased operations in May-14 and stored at Billund, Denmark.
In Nov-14 it was re-registered OY-YAG and repainted all white. It was leased to US Bangla Airlines (Bangladesh) as S2-AGW in Jun-15. US Bangla bought it in Sep-15. The aircraft was withdrawn from use and stored at Dhaka, Bangladesh in May-19. Permanently retired? Updated 21-Dec-23.
...feeding on Mistflower (Eupatorium purpurcum).
The Common Buckeye is a permanent resident in the southern United States and north along the coasts to central California and North Carolina; south to Bermuda, Cuba, Isle of Pines, and southern Mexico. Adults from the south's first brood migrate north in late spring and summer to temporarily colonize most of the United States and parts of southern Canada.
Habitat includes open, sunny areas with low vegetation and some bare ground.
Adult butterlies favorite nectar sources are composites including aster, chickory, gumweed, knapweed, and tickseed sunflower. Dogbane, peppermint, and other flowers are also visited.
The caterpillar host plants are from the snapdragon family including snapdragon (Antirrhinum) and toadflax (Linaria); the plantain family including plantains (Plantago); and the acanthus family including ruellia (Ruellia nodiflora).
Male Buckeyes typically perch during the day on low plants or bare ground to watch for females, flying periodically to patrol or to chase away other flying insects. Females lay eggs singly on leaf buds or on upperside of host plant leaves. Typically two to three broods from May - October, throughout the year in the Deep South. Caterpillars are solitary and eat leaves. Caterpillars and adults overwinter, but only in the south.
Buckeyes (Junonia) are known for their distinctive bold pattern of eyespots and white bars on the upper wing surface. The eyespots likely serve to startle or distract predators, especially young birds.

Founded in 1970, Arcosanti is an arcology designed in the Brutalist style by Paolo Soleri to serve as a self-sufficient community on a desert mesa near Cordes Lakes, Arizona. The buildings that comprise the complex, despite being a work-in-progress, were mostly built between 1971 and 1980, with more sporadic work on a few portions of the complex being completed as recently as 2008. The complex is the result of the design philosophy of Soleri, being an example of his theory of an arcology, combining ecology with architecture, making a dense, self-sufficient community that works with the natural landscape, and an alternative to urban sprawl and more conventional development patterns. Soleri guided the project until his death at the age of 92 in 2013, with further phases of construction being planned. However, Arcosanti has struggled to grow beyond a commune of 150 people, taking on a form and size comparable to a traditional pre-industrial rural village, rather than a town or city with thousands of residents as envisioned by Soleri. Most residents of Arcosanti are like-minded, which is required for the community’s ability to function and operate, and consist primarily of artists, environmentalists, farmers, and sustainability advocates, whom each contribute their skills to the community. In addition to the permanent residents, temporary residents whom spend five weeks attending workshops at the site. Despite its shortcomings, Arcosanti’s relationship to the surrounding environment, radical approach in design, philosophical background, and self-sufficiency are key points that are valuable to consider when designing buildings for sustainability and environmental consciousness, along with being an excellent example of Brutalism, which harmonizes nicely with the surrounding desert landscape.
The buildings at Arcosanti include the boxy, rectilinear Visitor Center, which appears like a medieval tower rising from the edge of the Mesa, with an open pier foundation that provides shelter to visitors entering and exiting the Visitor Trail, the half-domes for the Ceramics Studio and Metallurgy Foundry, various resident apartments, which demonstrate varying exterior characteristics, a barrel vaulted canopy over the central plaza, known as the vaults, a laboratory that houses a greenhouse and woodshed, allowing for food to be grown more efficiently and for items to be crafted by residents, the East Crescent, which contains resident housing and surrounds a central amphitheater. The site also features a swimming pool, gardens, resident cabins, which mostly date to the first stages of construction in the early 1970s, a self-contained wastewater management system, and guest rooms for visitors. The main complex of buildings are arranged at the edge of a mesa, overlooking a canyon, with smaller buildings located further down into the canyon and in the bottomlands along the Agua Fria River.
Arcosanti provides a counterpoint to the modern development pattern, one that is more sensitive and respectful to the landscape and the natural environment, and a design that fosters a strong sense of community, all of which are lacking from most new development being built today. Residents are able to quickly walk to work and to amenities within the community, reducing the dependency on cars and mechanized transportation. Additionally, buildings are designed to be energy efficient, incorporating passive strategies for thermal regulation and lighting. The complex, owned by the Cosanti foundation, remains a work in progress, with only ten percent of the proposed buildings being complete, and cover a very small area of the larger property owned by the foundation, with most of the land being left in its natural state or utilized for agriculture. Tours are available for visitors, along with overnight stays in the guest rooms at the complex, and the complex continues to house and foster a tight-knit, vibrant community.
Ulooloo.
The permanent creek here was discovered by Surveyor General Captain Frome in 1843. A small gold rush to the hills of Ulooloo began in 1869 and continued until 1872. Even when the findings were diminishing there were 200 men working on the Ulooloo goldfields in early 1872 but this fell to around 40 by the end of that year. There were several revivals of gold digging but no great finds were ever made. There were sufficient people on the diggings for a Wesleyan Church to be built there in 1871 (closed 1881) and a small school operated from 1873 for a few years. But the name of Ulooloo is mainly remembered as one of the great pastoral estates of South Australia. John Chewings arrived in SA in 1840 from Somerset. He partnered with Hiles and Dare in purchasing and running several northern leasehold estates. About 1853 they took up a huge mid North leasehold which they called Munjibbi station. A few years later Munjibbi was divided between the three men with John Chewings keeping the southern portion of the leasehold along Ulooloo Creek. He called his new estate Workongooree. Chewings did well and purchased a station further north at Teetulpa and then moved to the Kadlunga estate near Mintaro. Chewings died at Kadlunga in 1879.
Ulooloo station was taken over by the Melrose family of Rosebank near Mt Pleasant. They were related to the Murrays and nearby Cappeedee Station near Hallett. Sir John Melrose was born at Rosebank in 1860 as one of the sons of George Melrose. By 1884 he was managing his father’s station at Ulooloo which is where he stayed for the rest of his life. Sir John Melrose died here in 1938. The property remained in the Melrose family. Sir John purchased the property in his own right upon his father’s death in 1894. Sir John Melrose was an innovator and in 1895 he introduced the first Dorset sheep to Australia. Then in 1913 he introduced the first French Percheron draughthorses (later used as police greys in Adelaide) to Australia. Finally in 1928 he introduced the first Wensleydale sheep into Australia from New Zealand. A major portion of Ulooloo station s resumed by the state government for closed settlement in 1910. The Ulooloo homestead is believed to have been built in 1884 when Sir John Melrose moved there. He married two years later (1886) and would certainly have needed a grand marital home by then. The stone bay windows on the surrounding veranda would date the house to this period. The house faces south beside Ulooloo Creek. The yard has a complex of station buildings, store rooms, old blacksmith, sheds, workers cottages etc. After Sir John Melrose’s death in 1938 his daughter Margaret Lily Melrose who had married Arthur Gaynor Owen-Smyth lived in the Ulooloo homestead and ran their property until their deaths in 1970. A grandson of Sir John Melrose was still managing the property in the late 1970s.
The Ulooloo district spread back towards Hallett and the large pastoral states were broken up for grain farmers from 1872 onwards. The railway line from Burra to Terowie was completed in 1880 and Ulooloo got its own railway siding at that time. After the private school at the Ulooloo goldfields closed in the 1870s a tin and iron state school opened near the railway siding in 1888. It closed in 1906. A second stone Ulooloo school was built in 1928 and opened by Sir John Melrose of Ulooloo station. It small enrolment was seriously affected by a whooping cough epidemic in 1939 and its closure followed in 1940. This small stone building has now disappeared.

I once made the mistake of tripping the intruder alarms at TQ Express. I was still fiddling with the alarm panel frantically trying to put the right PIN in when two machine gun armed Police beckoned to me through the door. But then they only had to leap round from the unit next door. They are a discreet little team (normally) with no fixed signs to show a special Police unit is based there, but today three fast pursuit cars were a bit of a giveaway. But, for TQ Express, we appreciate the additional security so close to home.
I still think it's a hippie clothes line.

BACKSTORY: Well, that was a crazy burn! So much shit I never expected to do, at WickerMan Burn 2016!
- Damaged Carolyn's car on the way in so that it permanently squeaks, except it got better by the time weleft
- Ate a tequila worm (so much more chewing than you would imagine!) when naked-goddess-bartender poured me one, randomly. (I had to check that it wasn't something from the woods)
- Watched fireworks so dangerously close that I needed first aid for a burned eyeball (could this be why the vision in that eye went bad this year?)
- Learned to weave. On a loom. And wove some. Took video of weaving.
- worried about this spleen issue I have that is starting to feel less like a pain, and more like an actual tumor that you can distinctly feel on one side (still hurting as of 2017, CT Scan found nothing)
- controlled huge flamethrowers with laserbeams & buttons
- fun stuff on top of a 20-ft wooden ziggurat art installation (Carolyn was too scared to go up!)
- Watched a firework fireball zoom past Carolyn's head (she didn't even flinch) and catch the ground on fire 1 foot from her feet
- Made out with both members of a couple (beards can be soft?)
- Bounced in a moon bounce
- Saw Carolyn fall off a bounce-house ramp, tumbling in mid air, as onlookers screamed (one massage later, she's fine)
- Played with propane bubbles (cover hand, stick in fire, watch self burn) with zero regard for my safety or even knowing what they were ("other people aren't dying when they do this, so i'll do this, whatever this is. no, i won't ask anybody any questions about it or learn anything safety-related")
- Treated 2nd degree cooking burn with actual aloe leaves someone bundled up, just in case. Only had to walk 20 feet from my camp! No relation to previous bullet point.
- Tried [REDACTED]
- Used logical deduction to guide a damsel in distress to her campsite that she could not find, even though I had never been there. (If you want to flatter me, make me feel like Aragorn. I also accept pints of cherry tomatoes & great conversation)
- Received tons of compliments about my hair & badass cartoon shirt (and about my brain) (but I get that a lot... it's the others I'm not so used to)
- Worried about Andrea in rehab. Did all kinds of crazy things to maintain connectivity to check up on her. A lotta good that did. RIP, Andrea.
- Learned to always great one specific person with "Hi, Clint!" (Her name is not Clint. This is how she prefers greetings.)
- Wore My Little Pony boxer-briefs around strangers
- Sent video from the middle of the woods with a phone that only works when plugged in (tricky)
- Met the creator of games I've played for 15 yrs, & found out that the vintage set of game pieces my aunt found me in a thrift store are so rare that he was re-telling people about our set... Even when we weren't even there. So honored! To tell the man who invented Fluxx that you had the original Fluxx back when that was the only Fluxx you could get was awesome, too.
- But to make a reference to a specific episode of 2 Stupid Dogs to the creator of Fluxx, and have him know it and repeat it back... Wow.
- Chastised by Channy for not knowing how to spellmy own name on facebook, becuase she wanted pictoral proof of my story that did not believe -- that the deer shit that came out of the deer when my Bonneville was totalled (while driving back from Dirk's) had splattered onto my car in the shape of Pluto the Dog's face. I totally sent her that picture!
- Lost 1 of 2 cameras, resulting in our pictures being quite incomplete (gee, real Burnery of whoever found it to not bother giving it back. If I find someone else's camera, I guess this means I'll have to keep it to break even?)
- Learned I can consistently inhale an entire nitrous oxide cartridge in one lungful
- Randomly given 2 beers by someone, only to ask to see her face, and, after introductions, us all realizing we already know each other already and are FB friends already (wtf?! what are the odds?!)
Saw a truck covered in fire driving down the mountain like nothingwas going on. Overheard: "Are you seeing that? Is that real?"
Phew? Did I get everything? I don't know! One night, I never saw my camp during the night time, at all.

Portmeirion is dotted all over with statues and other works of art. This bronze ship is located near the stone boat. The campanile and part of the domed parthenon are visible beyond.
Some of you may have noticed that, unfortunately, owing to the fact that a certain person who sells truck photos on eBay commercially has been lifting my images from this album and selling them I have had to remove 2300 photos that didn't have a watermark. I have now run around 1700 through Lightroom and added a watermark with the intention of bulk uploading them again. Rather than watermark the existing (hidden) files in Flickr one at a time it will be easier to do it this way. I definitely won’t be adding individual tags with the make and model of each vehicle I will just add generic transport tags. Each photo is named after the vehicle and reg in any case. For anyone new to these images there is a chapter and verse explanation below. It is staggering how many times I get asked questions that a quick scan would answer or just as likely I can’t possibly answer – I didn’t take them, but, just to clarify-I do own the copyright- and I do pursue copyright theft.
This is a collection of scanned prints from a collection of photographs taken by the late Jim Taylor A number of years ago I was offered a large number of photographs taken by Jim Taylor, a transport photographer based in Huddersfield. The collection, 30,000 prints, 20,000 negatives – and copyright! – had been offered to me and one of the national transport magazines previously by a friend of Jim's, on behalf of Jim's wife. I initially turned them down, already having over 30,000 of my own prints filed away and taking space up. Several months later the prints were still for sale – at what was, apparently, the going rate. It was a lot of money and I deliberated for quite a while before deciding to buy them. I did however buy them directly from Jim’s wife and she delivered them personally – just to quash the occasional rumour from people who can’t mind their own business. Although some prints were sold elsewhere, particularly the popular big fleet stuff, I should have the negatives, unfortunately they came to me in a random mix, 1200 to a box, without any sort of indexing and as such it would be impossible to match negatives to prints, or, to even find a print of any particular vehicle. I have only ever looked at a handful myself unless I am scanning them. The prints are generally in excellent condition and I initially stored them in a bedroom without ever looking at any of them. In 2006 I built an extension and they had to be well protected from dust and moved a few times. Ultimately my former 6x7 box room office has become their (and my own work’s) permanent home.
I hope to avoid posting images that Jim had not taken his self, however should I inadvertently infringe another photographers copyright, please inform me by email and I will resolve the issue immediately. There are copyright issues with some of the photographs that were sold to me. A Flickr member from Scotland drew my attention to some of his own work amongst the first uploads of Jim’s work. I had a quick look through some of the 30 boxes of prints and decided that for the time being the safest thing for me to do was withdraw the majority of the earlier uploaded scans and deal with the problem – which I did. whilst the vast majority of the prints are Jims, there is a problem defining copyright of some of them, this is something that the seller did not make clear at the time. I am reasonably confident that I have since been successful in identifying Jims own work. His early work consists of many thousands of lustre 6x4 prints which are difficult to scan well, later work is almost entirely 7x5 glossy, much easier to scan. Not all of the prints are pin sharp but I can generally print successfully to A4 from a scan.
You may notice photographs being duplicated in this Album, unfortunately there are multiple copies of many prints (for swapping) and as I have to have a system of archiving and backing up I can only guess - using memory - if I have scanned a print before. The bigger fleets have so many similar vehicles and registration numbers that it is impossible to get it right all of the time. It is easier to scan and process a print than check my files - on three different PC’s - for duplicates. There has not been, nor will there ever be, any intention to knowingly breach anyone else's copyright. I have presented the Jim Taylor collection as exactly that-The Jim Taylor Collection- his work not mine, my own work is quite obviously mine.
Unfortunately, many truck spotters have swapped and traded their work without copyright marking it as theirs. These people never anticipated the ease with which images would be shared online in the future. I would guess that having swapped and traded photos for many years that it is almost impossible to control their future use. Anyone wanting to control the future use of their work would have been well advised to copyright mark their work (as many did) and would be well advised not to post them on photo sharing sites without a watermark as the whole point of these sites is to share the image, it is very easy for those that wish, to lift any image, despite security settings, indeed, Flickr itself, warns you that this is the case. It was this abuse and theft of my material that led me to watermark all of my later uploads. I may yet withdraw non-watermarked photos, I haven’t decided yet. (I did in the end)
To anyone reading the above it will be quite obvious that I can’t provide information regarding specific photos or potential future uploads – I didn’t take them! There are many vehicles that were well known to me as Jim only lived down the road from me (although I didn’t know him), however scanning, titling, tagging and uploading is laborious and time consuming enough, I do however provide a fair amount of information with my own transport (and other) photos. I am aware that there are requests from other Flickr users that are unanswered, I stumble across them months or years after they were posted, this isn’t deliberate. Some weekends one or two “enthusiasts” can add many hundreds of photos as favourites, this pushes requests that are in the comments section ten or twenty pages out of sight and I miss them. I also have notifications switched off, I receive around 50 emails a day through work and I don’t want even more from Flickr. Other requests, like many other things, I just plain forget – no excuses! Uploads of Jim’s photos will be infrequent as it is a boring pastime and I would much rather work on my own output.
