![View from almost underneath of a white, twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with undercarriage lowered and flaps extended from behind the wings, suggesting it is about to land.
The plane is pretty much just white, with red "TUI" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and a red logo that looks like the upper-case letters "T", "U", and "I" smushed together to form a winking smiley face.
There are black "Tui[dot]com" titles on the outer faces of the engine pods slung under the wings.
The registration "ES-SAF" is under the outer left wing.
Bright lights in the landing gear wells are shining forwards.
Clouds fill the background under the plane, with blue sky above.](https://social.teamb.space/system/media_attachments/files/114/309/922/692/395/118/original/4131ced151e56ddf.jpeg "View from almost underneath of a white, twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a very low altitude, with undercarriage lowered and flaps extended from behind the wings, suggesting it is about to land.

Photo of the Day 3rd April 2025.
Rob Clougher, guitarist with the Pearl Jam cover band Pearl Jammer on stage at The Roadhouse in Manchester, 14th September 2013.
Normally I wouldn't be interested in a covers band, but Rob and Kev (Dixon, vocals) were old friends, so off I went to see them.
