Often when I am at an airport I take pictures of the planes on the runways or parked at the terminals.
Here is some interesting tail art from a trip I took to South Africa in 2001. It was a trip where I didn’t fly on my usual airline.
These were all from a special series of art on British Airways planes.
Here is the tail from the plane I was flying on when I flew from SFO to LHR on the way there.
This one was know as Kogutkie Lowickie and represented Poland.
In the background you can see a South African Airways plane.
I like this tail with the big flower. This one was known as the Chelsea Rose.
In the background you can see the new paint scheme livery fo BA that was introduced in 1999.
The flight from LHR to SFO that landed in Canada on my way home was in the new livery.
This was one of a series of Delft Blue schemes representing The Netherlands.
This one was known as Ndebele Emmly for the artist who was from the South African Ndebele tribe.
This tail showed art representing Northern Australia and was called Water Dreaming.
I have a few more from this series that I may share sometime, so perhaps there will be a sequel.
