nice shots! especially the first one with the mountains in the background. You should upload them on airliners.net if you have heard of it before

btw do you know what is the British Airways Boeing 737 doing in South Africa since its only used for intra Europe flights and doesnt have range to fly that far without fuel stops

 

[PushingTin]

Thx Hobbes, have heard of airliners.net before but they used to reject all my photos, so I stopped trying for now

Its a local South African airline called comair operating as BA within South Africa.

 

[Hobbes]

ah i see. Those picky bastards jk well to me these shots look professional especially the first one so it's strange that they rejected your photos.
and thanks for the info about the aircraft in BA's livery

Any other comments? This will be my one and only bump

Dont u at least like the liveries, I think the Kulula Zipper is nice and what about the flying car?

 

[The Losing Kind]

Hey there! I have to say, I've never seen planes this colourful (bright green?! The zipper effect on that one is neat, though). The car one is really trippy to look at, like the car is driving straight off the plane! It's also good compositionally. I've never photographed planes before, but it looks like you did a great job!

 

[PushingTin]

Yes we have some weird and colorful planes and liveries here. Thx for commenting

and since the article is dated oct 05 i have to assume its no april fools joke neither

I like the paint scheme and the "salmon thirty salmon" quote

Just glad it wasnt my tax money but then again, my tax money doesnt go to any worthy cause anyways!
