Bonus Photo of the Day 2nd April 2025.

G-RVNP, Partenavia P.68B Victor, RavenAir, seconds after taking off from Runway 09 at Liverpool John Lennon, 11th March 5.
RavenAir operates a load of these for survey and mapping flights, and are regularly spotted in the skies around the UK.
Photo taken on my phone after my camera battery died, hence the low quality.

Slightly grainy side view of a white, high-winged, twin propellor-engined light aircraft flying from right to left ot a low altitude. The plane has a dark blue belly, and red and yellow stripes running along the body. The registration "G-RVNP" is visible under the left wing, and on the side of the rear fuselage. The word "Survey" is visible under the right wing. There are small, black "RavenAir" titles on the lower part of the tailfin. Bright, hazy skies fill the rest of the frame.
