Photo of the Day 18th February 2026.

OY-NCN, Dornier DO-328JET-310, SunAir of Scandinavia but operating in British Airways livery, taking off on one of several daily flights to Billund in Demark from Runway 23 Right at Manchester Airport, 24th August 2015, as seen from the Runway Viewing Park.
This is (or, at least, was) oddly the only regularly scheduled international route from Manchester operated in British Airways colours (and, in fact, the only route not involving Heathrow!), and it's about the only place I would choose to fly with BA, partly because I think these planes are fun and interesting, but mostly because Billund is the home of Lego, and I'm a massive fan!
