Photo of the Day 1st April 2025.

UR-42544, Yakovlev Yak-42, Avia Express, parked across it's gate at Manchester Airport, some time in 1992 or 1993, as seen from the top of the |Terminal 1 car park.
The airport didn't have a towbar to fit this type, which explains the jaunty angle at which this is parked, to enable it to move away under it's own power once it completes the turn.

Side view of a white, 3 engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the rear fuselage, parked facing to the right. The plane has a grey belly, and a blue stripe running along the body under the cockpit windows. There is blue text in a Cyrillic script on the upper fuselage, next to the flag of Ukraine (equal horizontal bars, blue on top, yellow below.) There is a yellow circle on the tail, containing a stylised blue flying bird. The registration "UR-42544" is on the centre engine intake, below and in front of the tail, in black. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with white airbridges hanging out into space filling most of the background, assorted baggage carts, trucks, and other pieces of airport furniture scattered around the place.

Side view of a white, 3 engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left. The plane has a grey belly, a blue stripe running along the body, and blue titles in Cyrillic that translate to "Aviation Express" in English. The tail has a yellow circle with a stylised blue flying bird in the middle, and the registration "UR-42544" in black on the tail-mounted centre engine inlet. Grey-brown concrete apron fills the foreground and much of the background, with black buildings with red and white stripes nestled in trees in the distance.

Side view of a white, 3 engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left. The plane has a grey belly, a blue stripe running along the body, and blue titles in Cyrillic that translate to "Aviation Express" in English. The tail has a yellow circle with a stylised blue flying bird in the middle, and the registration "UR-42544" in black on the tail-mounted centre engine inlet. Grey-brown concrete apron fills the foreground and much of the background, with black buildings with red and white stripes nestled in trees in the distance.
Massively back-lit side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner looming out of the mist at a cold and frosty airport. There are dark blue, billboard-style "FinnAir" titles on the side of the plane's upper fuselage, and a dark blue capital "F" on the tail. Green grass covered with frost fills the foreground, the background is filled with thin orange mist, glowing because of the rising sun glowing through it.
Low side view of a white, twin engioned jet airliner with a red forward fuselage flying from left to right at a low altitude. The plane has flaps extended from behind the wings, the undercarriage already tucked away, and the nose raised fairly sharply, suggesting it has just taken off. There are white "NorwegianDotCom" titles on the lower forward fuselage, red upturned wingtips, and a red tip of the tail. The tail itself has a black and white line drawing ofof a man in an extravagant wig, with the name "Ludwig Holberg" against a purple background at the bottom. Pale blue sky fills the rest of the frame.
