Check the V1 on the side of the fuselage.

i rawther like the ballsy attitude one must have in order to paint their plane with a target. Now *that* is swagger!!

sorry about the redundant picture, but if I remove it, the original one posted by another forumer for some reason also disappears, so I have to leave the second one up. Not sure why this is, but...

I thought this was an Airbus 319 or 320.

 

[Klink]

It's an Airbus A320 series aircraft. (A320-211)

Hope they don't play any shows in the Middle East this time around. Hate to see them fly over Iraq with that big target on them =)

True. This kind of reminds me of the "Beautiful Day" video. Always made me wonder why they featured an MEA (Lebanese Airline) jet taking off and landing.

Ah, that's why. The wingtips scream Airbus. :aircraftnerd:

You are right. And join the club.

Does it come with a CanadARM?

the a320 is a nice ride -- what are those things on the wingtips?

 

[reneedo]

Now, let's see if someone can come up with a picture of the INSIDE of the plane!

That would more than likely be trespass/stalking.

Maybe U2 will be interviewed on the plane ie give permission for their private space to be photographed. Maybe, maybe not, who knows.

The triangular type things are called winglets. All airbus aircraft have them except for some older and cargo version A300s and A310s. They reduce drag from air flowing over the wings, which improves fuel consumption, which in turn saves money and increases the range of the aircraft. There are all kinds of different winglets, which may more be advantageous depending on the physics of the wing structure. Not all aircraft with winglets are more efficient, either. Some boeing models now have winglets, too. For example:

Southwest Airlines 737-700

More appropriately:
Boeing Business Jet (737-7AK) 'Elevation Air'

Vertigo One

 

[Klink]

If they charter a different one in Europe for the 2nd leg, maybe it will be Vertigo 2?
