Tayara means 'airplane' in Arabic.

This blog is about airplanes and anything that involves them.

It is mostly about Commercial Aviation, but also General and, occasionally, Military.

During my travels around the world I take pictures and video as a hobby of everything and anything related. I also include some acquaintances’ contributions from time to time, giving them proper credit.

Please, feel free to comment or suggest on my posts.

ANA Boeing 747-400D JA8960 / 2011.03.24

HND (Haneda airport (aka Tokyo International airport). Tokyo, Japan)
Only in Japan you could find B-744's with no winglets. They were commonly used by JAL and ANA on high-capacity short Domestic routes (adding the D to the -400), where having winglets would not mean a significant reduction in fuel consumption. All Nippon Airways, ANA (全日本空輸株式会社, 全日空) Boeing 747-400D JA8960 taxies before departure for, yes... another Domestic flight.
