Great Photo's Chris and Jono, the 787 has now really pushed its self into the scene , still bloody great to see the 747 ... nothing beats those , course the mix off liveries ... B-)

Cheers Ian ... there are a lot more as you can imagine ... but i dont have time at the moment to sort them.
A stand out for me is the 767 .
Im heading up there (AKL) in about 3 weeks for a few days .... for a bit of r&r , Im keen to try out the new camera , so some spotting is in order.

Thanks for looking.

Nice to see the variety we get!
For me the AA new colours are a real winner.
How to translate the star-bangled spanner into a modern livery... we shoulda taken a leaf out of that book for the Flag debate.

Something that's interesting for the evolution type of person is the tail bumpers. Look at the 767 and the 777, they both have tail bumpers yet the 787 doesn't, quite possibly due to the advances in FBW technology. (Yes I know the 767 isn't FBW)

Also the Airbus fleet doesn't again due to the benefit's(?) of their software.
