reef 3 Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Hey guys, Nope not a balloon of hot air but Caesars Chariot, luxury travel of the band, Led Zeppelin for their 77 tour. The aircraft is the Boeing 707 then owned by Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Cheers... steve. Link to post Share on other sites
simi_av8r 0 Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 stunning Steve, there's no other word for it. The angle, the vidid colours and the contrast between the subject and background really bring the picture together. :sad: Simi Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 This plane - Boeing 720-022 (N7224U) - was used by the Bee-Gees two years later for their 1979 tour! Rock on, Steve. :sad: Mind you, I preferred Rolf Harris's version....... Cheers - Dai. Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,493 Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Hi Steve, The look of the reflections really echo the wet feel to the weather even though it's not raining, that's a great capture. A superb angle, one of my favourites with the nose wheel turning. :good Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
reef 3 Posted February 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Cheers guys appreciate you looking it over. Dai with regards to the rolf comment my wife said......"Yeah right!!"......she really likes Led Zeppelin, hehe. :sad: steve Link to post Share on other sites

dgor 0 Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 Great shot Steve! Such a fantastic angle. They're using a B757-200 now I believe - I was surprised to learn that LZ's lead singer is a pilot for Astraeus (who have leased the 757) :yes: Dave Link to post Share on other sites
reef 3 Posted February 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 Cheers 1mag and David although i have no idea where you heard Robert Plant flies for Astraeus or is even a pilot. steve Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid 149 Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 Before Panos starts shouting (!) - Bruce Dickinson (from Iron Maiden), is the pilot, whereas Robert Plant lives up in mid Wales, just a couple of miles from our cottage near Cadair Idris. I think he uses a bike, too! Pam's seen him in the local organic shop (Yawn - Ed!) Cheers - Dai. :yes: Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,493 Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 Robert Plant in an organic shop? Where else! :yes: Link to post Share on other sites
