Nice photos. I like the Lufthansa and AC jazz.

The Jet airways A330 is a frequent sight here heading to Brussels. I expect your photo is the return flight - Brussels to Toronto ;)

The Jazz looks really great Guest Spotter CYOW, no to be seen overhere ;)

Btw welcome in the club Benighted, your first frame was indeed a Lufthansa 747, often to be found in northern Belgium and just to far away from my spot.
