Which airline was this? So I don't fly it........

This one's a KLM flight.

I get these in one of my warehouses all the time.
They're always transported 'naked' and it fascinating to see them without the covers and cowls on.
I don't have a clue what does what but they're kind of beautiful to see.

I just read that back and I'm worried about myself.

Ooops, I thought we'd had this before and was sure I read it was a KL flight.
Ah well, what do skwirrells know about aero engines?
Cool

My Pop designed the silencing used on the Olympus 320*, latterly the 'Olympus 593', used on Concorde with considerably more effective silencing. There is a photo of him many years ago standing by the business end of one on a cradle with a measuring device the size of your average Basketball hall hooked up to the back of it. I am confident he would agree with you. He might also mention how much silencing technology has improved since his day. Heheh.
