What might have been! The ill-fated Airborne Early Warning Nimrod goes through its paces at the Farnborough Air Show. Delays to the 'cost-plus' programme, technical problems, and an aircraft which was, in fact, too small for the equipment it was meant to carry led to the demise at birth of this aircraft. Instead, the RAF took delivery of Boeing 707 AWACS similar to those operated under the NATO banner.

British Caledonian tried a few names for its charter operation. Here DC10, carrying BCA Charter titles, lifts off from Glasgow's runway 23 on a stormy Sunday evening.

Icelandair's Boeing 737-400 TF-FID, the only 400 series aircraft painted in their new colours, lands at Glasgow Airport on a cold spring morning. You can download a model of this aircraft suitable for Microsoft FS98 (and possibly FS2000, although I don't guarantee it!) from the 'Other Aircraft' page of this website.
