Laker Airways McDonnell Douglas DC-10 'Canterbury Belle' parked on tarmac with Union Jack livery in black and white
A Laker Airways McDonnell Douglas DC-10 trijet named 'Canterbury Belle' sits on the airport tarmac in this black and white photograph. The aircraft displays Laker Airways' distinctive livery featuring the Union Jack flag on the fuselage, representing Sir Freddie Laker's British low-cost transatlantic airline operation. This appears to be from the late 1970s during the height of Laker's Skytrain service that revolutionized affordable air travel between the UK and United States.
