Pictaero's Screeners' Choice - Monday May 25th 2009

This week, our screeners' choice is depicting all the aeronautical range. First of all, we have some airliners with an Arik Air Airbus A340-500, an American Airlines Boeing B767-300, a Corsair A330 taking off at dusk, an Air France A319 and a Ryanair Boeing 737-800 leaving the airport at Dinard, in Brittany.

As for the military, we have warbirds as well as more modern aircraft (Please note that many photos were taken during the Duxford Airshow by David Barrie). Thus, let us begin with a flight of Royal Air Force Spitfires and a B-25 wearing British roundels which are reminiscent of the great sacrifice of the Royal Air Force during World War Two. Then more "recent" airplanes come next, all being in their forties such as the C-160 Transall, flying for the Luftwaffe, the MiG-21 and the American cargo helicopter CH-47 Chinook. Finally, we end this military section with a state-of-the-art rescue helicopter used by dozens of SAR operators around the world, the EC-145 seen here wearing the colours of the French Sécurité Civile.

Finally, we've got some interesting general aviation photos we wanted to share with you. The first one represents the Antonov-2 LY-LEI approaching Sion airport. Then, there are photos of the last member of the Breitling fleet, a DC-3 and a Pitts S-2.

That's it for now. I hope you have enjoyed our Weekly Screeners' Choice!! See you next week!!!
