Aircraft Photo Highlights of the Week
It looks like there is plenty of material on this topic, so let’s keep going.
1 A visit to the A350 in Hong Kong. Notice the Cathay Pacific and JAL aircraft in the background; they are two major buyers of the A350, you know. Please click to view the full image.
2 What would it look like if giant Sumo wrestlers were squeezed into a narrow Bombardier DHC-8-400? Find out below. Flight attendants probably have the biggest headache; the meal cart definitely won’t fit through the aisle.
機内ではこんな感じでした。
ぎゅうぎゅう状態です。

8 A British Airways 747 just after takeoff. Generally, photos like this are taken from the ground. The feature of this one is that it is in the air, taken by a photographer from another aircraft.
9 The engine of a 737-800 blowing up a large amount of water vapor on a wet Runway in the rain.
