Nice photo, shame you can't discern the plane's double engines, I love them, (despite doubting the soundness of the design).

Is there really anything more stunning than the VC-10 tail? It just says VROOM, and most beautifully captured here with the most dramatic flair. Thanks for the pic!

A visitor from China posted Sat February 18, 2006:
Fantastic!!

Magnificent!

A visitor from Korea, Republic Of posted Sat February 18, 2006:
Quite a powerful shot. You must have been so close. I can only imagine what it felt like to be so close to such a magnificent piece of equipment!

A visitor from United States posted Thu February 16, 2006:
My first ever flight was on a Super VC10 from LHR to Johannesburg in January 1971. Still one of the most beautiful flying machines ever made and great to see them still in the air as tankers so many years later.

A visitor from India posted Tue February 14, 2006:
Best photo so far- Arivoli

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Mon February 13, 2006:
What a superb, original photo. Sam Chui take note...!

A visitor from Sweden posted Mon February 13, 2006:
This picture is stunning really. Too bad that they don't make airliners this beatyful anymore :(. There's no airliner with as perfect proportions as the VC-10 in my opinion.

A visitor from Canada posted Mon February 13, 2006:
Wow,, one of the better ones. really good compisition and light play.

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Mon February 13, 2006:
To keep such detail at such low light is why this is a top shot The clouds look fantastic..Great stuff Chris...I love the Rap Ripp Tornado lowlevel too.Well done.

A visitor from United States posted Mon February 13, 2006:
Beautiful photo of a rare aircraft, but lose the watermark..it pulls away from the photo! :(

A visitor from United States posted Mon February 13, 2006:
Beautiful picture, spoiled by a watermark

A visitor from United States posted Mon February 13, 2006:
I love the VC10 and this has to be one of the best ever shots of it. I would like an office with a view like this

A visitor from Brazil posted Mon February 13, 2006:
What a beaultiful shot!!! This may be one of the best shots I've ever seen here at Airliners.net. The light is perfect and the aircraft...just a classic beaulty!

A visitor from France posted Mon February 13, 2006:
Looks like a phantom plane and the best bit of it is that it's flying between two cloud layers. This pic is a real stunner. congrats nd brgds / (gp)

A visitor from United States posted Mon February 13, 2006:
This shot just made my week end! Very awesome!

Quite possibly one of the best silhouette shots I have ever seen!

A visitor from Germany posted Sun February 12, 2006:
That's what I call a perfect shot. This picture delivers a very particular mood with its predominantly grey colours and clouds below and above the plane. Great job.

A visitor from Finland posted Sun February 12, 2006:
What a nice angle of a beautiful aircraft...and stunning background too!

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sun February 12, 2006:
A good photograph allways captures the atmosphere and the mood of the moment - this one does a very good job at that! Well done.

WWOOOOWW, what a stunner!!

A visitor from United States posted Sun February 12, 2006:
This incredible shot clearly shows that, regardless of age, the VC 10 is the most graceful airliner. Just beautiful! Thank you.
