Lets see if anyone can spot the theme I inadvertantly set up with todays photos!

@mancavgeek types no longer flying?

@zkarj Not quite - 3 of the photos are linked in a more obvious way, even if you know nothing about planes.

@mancavgeek I see 3 x BA.

@zkarj It's actually even more niche than that - Airliners carrying BA colours, but operated by other airlines!
And, even more niche, airlines from other countries!
Sun Air of Scandinavia the DO328 and Maersk Air (1-11) were both from Denmark, and Manx Airlines (SD360) were from the Isle of Man (technically an independant country), although their main operating hub was Manchester!

This was entirely accidental - I was curating several days worth of photos, realised I had several examples of the same type appearing twice, and just dumpoed the excess into the next empty folder, and ended up with 3 of the same airline by accident, because I have moments like that!
