Also its amazing that a 50 year old aircraft can look totally in place amongst modern tin (and plastic) in fact TQOTS looks totally superior
even in her dotage

Nice shots mate

Hi Leif

Not sure whom the green Boeing BBJ belongs to, but is registered VP-BNZ.
A quick Google of this reg shows it to be a Gulfstream :shock:
I can only assume its a new aircraft that has taken on its owners previous reg.
I'm not sure how it found its way to Birmingham. Possibly a diversion during the pre-Christmas fog.

Cheers

Kevin

What's that all about, then? Or is Brum still so last century?

simple really..to save money after 9/11 all non-essential painting was stopped, and steps and ground equipment are considered non-essential,
as long as it keep working.

nice you've captured a couple of my 'birds' in there too..
