The DC-10 Air Tanker is a series of American wide-body jet air tankers, which have been in service as an aerial firefighting unit since 2006.[1] The aircraft, operated by the joint technical venture 10 Tanker Air Carrier, are converted wide body McDonnell Douglas DC-10 passenger jetliners, and are primarily used to fight wildfires, typically in rural areas. The turbofan-powered aircraft carry up to 45,000 Liters (12,000 US gallons) of water or fire retardant in an exterior belly-mounted tank, the contents of which can be released in eight seconds. Four air tankers are currently in operation, all DC-10-30 aircraft, with the call-signs Tanker 910, 911, 912 and 914.

On finals to land at Glasgow Prestwick airport in Ayrshire Scotland is the AN225.

The Antonov An-225 Mriya is a strategic airlift cargo aircraft that was designed by the Antonov Design Bureau in the Ukrainian SSR within the Soviet Union during the 1980s. It is powered by six turbofan engines and is the heaviest aircraft ever built, with a maximum take off weight of 640 tonnes. It also has the largest wingspan of any aircraft in operational service. The single example built has the Ukrainian civil registration UR-82060.

The Douglas Collection a bespoke set of 90 Douglas DC-8s which have now arrived back from the scanning department :) There will also be a set of 79 DC-9s. Again, I hope that they will provide some enjoyment and nostalgia from a bygone age.

 

Here we have a shot of an unusual visitor to London Heathrow - in the form of Spantax DC-8-61 EC-DVB - seen here approaching the threshold of runway 27R on an Aer Lingus flight. According to Irish251 there was a strike by some Aer Lingus staff in the week 2nd-7th July, so a lot of capacity was hired in to maintain a basic schedule. Spantax DC-8 EC-CZE also operated several Aer Lingus services on different days. (See comments section below)

N8763 c/n 46037 - Douglas DC-8-61 was delivered new to Eastern Airlines in Dec 1968, and flew with the airline for 14 years (although leased out to JAL and Capitol for some of the time) before being sold to Bankers Trust and stored at Marana, Arizona. However, in May 1983 the aircraft started a new lease of life with Overseas National Airlines (ONA). As with Eastern, the aircraft was sometimes leased out - this time to Saudia, National Airlines and Airlift International - all as N8763 before changing identity to EC-DVB with Spantax from Oct 1984 to Dec 1987. After return, the aircraft was sold to LAPSA (Paraguay) as ZP-CCR. After just four more years, the aircraft was withdrawn again - but survived to fly with Airborne Express as N853AX, converted to a freighter, from Feb 1995 to 2006, ending her days in storage before finally being broken up. One of the stretched DC-8s that escaped being re-engined with turbofans.

The Airbus A340 is a long-range, four-engine, wide-body commercial passenger jet airliner that was developed and produced by the European aerospace company Airbus.

 

The A340 was assembled in Toulouse, France. It seats up to 375 passengers in the standard variants and 440 in the stretched -600 series. Depending on the model, it has a range of 6,700 to 9,000 nautical miles (12,400 to 16,700 km; 7,700 to 10,400 mi). Its distinguishing features are four high-bypass turbofan engines and three leg main landing gear.

 

The A340 was manufactured in four fuselage lengths. The initial variant, A340-300, which entered service in 1993, measured 63.69 metres (209.0 ft).[6] The shorter -200 was developed next, and the A340-600 was a 15.96 metres (52.4 ft) stretch of the -200. The -600 was developed alongside the shorter A340-500, which would become the longest-range commercial airliner until the arrival of the Boeing 777-200LR. The -200 and -300 models were powered by the 151 kilonewtons (34,000 lbf) CFM56-5C, while the 267-kilonewton (60,000 lbf) Rolls-Royce Trent 500 was the exclusive powerplant for the extended-range -500 and -600 models. The initial A340-200 and -300 variants share the fuselage and wing of the twin-engine Airbus A330 with which it was concurrently designed. The heavier A340-500 and -600 are stretched and have enlarged wings.

 

Launch customers Lufthansa and Air France placed the A340 into service in March 1993. In September 2011, 379 orders had been placed (not including private operators), of which 375 were delivered. The most common type were the A340-300 model, with 218 aircraft delivered. Lufthansa is the biggest operator of the A340, having acquired 59 aircraft. The A340 is used on long-haul, trans-oceanic routes due to its immunity from ETOPS restrictions; however, with reliability and fuel efficiency in engines improving, airlines have gradually phased out the type in favour of more economical twinjets of comparable capacity such as the Boeing 777, while Airbus has positioned the larger variants of the Airbus A350 as a successor.

 

Airbus announced on 10 November 2011 that A340 production had been concluded.

The Boeing C-17 Globemaster III, a heavy-lift military transport aircraft, boasts a wingspan of 169.8 feet and a length of 174 feet. Powered by four Pratt & Whitney F117-PW-100 turbofan engines, it achieves a maximum speed of 450 knots and can carry up to 102 troops or 170,900 pounds of cargo.

"The Globemaster III on display is the prototype C-17. Built by the Douglas Aircraft Co., which is now Boeing, it was designated T-1 (S/N 87-0025). T-1 made its first flight on Sept. 15, 1991, when it was delivered to the USAF at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., for testing. After completing the extensive C-17 flight test program, T-1 supported many other flight and propulsion test programs for the USAF, NASA and others. T-1 also appeared in a number of major motion pictures, including "Transformers" (2007), "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" (2009), "Iron Man" (2008) and "Iron Man 2" (2010)".

Leaving Arrecife Airport, Lanzarote, Spain. The runway looks surprisingly foreshortened from this angle; it's actually 2.4 km long. If you look carefully, you'll see another plane in the distance (below the departing aircraft) coming in to land. I have recently come to feel bad about flying and now offset the carbon created by our flights. But better not to fly at all, I guess.

The Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II is a single-seat, twin turbofan engine, straight wing jet aircraft developed by Fairchild-Republic for the United States Air Force. It is commonly referred to by the nicknames "Warthog" or "Hog", although the A-10's official name comes from the Republic P-47 Thunderbolt, a World War II fighter-bomber effective at attacking ground targets. The A-10 was designed for close air support of friendly ground troops, attacking armoured vehicles and tanks, and providing quick-action support against enemy ground forces. It entered service in 1976 and is the only production-built aircraft that has served in the USAF that was designed solely for CAS. This A10 is one of two taxing out from RAF Lakenheath for a short local flight whilst stopping in Britain for a couple of air show's.

Not so good for Civil Aerospace at the moment, especially the wide body market.
