Caught this Aeroflot A332 flying over today. Was routing Havana-Moscow. Was just a tad far away for my liking, but still nice to see.

I'd hazard a guess that it's a World Airways DC10. Either that or a UPS.

Very busy in the sky today :) I must look like an idiot with the camera pointed to the sky :)
 Think the first image is a Delta Airlines A330 and the second an Austrian Airlines 767

BA 747, way past me before I could get my camera so this is a very tight crop, and a Turkish Airlines 777.
Third one is an Etihad A340

Nice one, you caught one of Etihad's four A340-500, pretty rare stuff! :D Turkish 773ER is also kind of rare :)

Those Etihad A345's are pretty common these days Dave. I've caught one, four times since mid Jan. One went over again today (A6-EHA), along with sister ships A6-EHE (A346) and a 77W which i didn't get the reg off.

Took a few today-had to shot into the Sun slightly which made things tricky.
Time was between 1430 and 1530 Saturday 13th Feb.
 
First one is an A330 with winglets thanks Dave-I have real problems telling B777, B767 and A330`s apart from long distances-I must look a bit closer at the characteristics of each.

This Swiss A340 flew right over head which made things a bit easier.
