DC-10 aircraft in flight against orange sunset sky with illuminated cabin windows during twilight hours

A McDonnell Douglas DC-10 wide-body aircraft photographed in flight during sunset or sunrise, with its cabin windows brightly illuminated against the dramatic orange and blue twilight sky. This aircraft type was commonly used by Laker Airways for their pioneering Skytrain low-cost transatlantic services during the 1970s and early 1980s.
