Comment / D-AKNF is one of a number of new logojets for Germanwings this summer. This scheme, advertising Park Inn Hotels, is perhaps the most eye-catching of them all.

Comment / The lack of any sunlight makes it difficult to bring out the classy silver scheme which adorns Norwegian's LN-KKZ. First delivered to Cameroon Airlines in November 1997, this Boeing 737 classic is not yet 10 years old. Between 2002 and 2006 she also sampled life in South America, as PT-MNL.

Comment / Eastern painted up this SAAB 2000 in a special scheme to promote Aberdeen City and Shire in spring 2006. Personally I think it's a bit of a let down! Seen arriving at Stansted on a charter from Berlin.

She still flies in the basic colours of the French carrier, despite joining her present employer Air Contractors some five years ago, in April 2002.
