Unfortunately they are almost all just a fond memory today. British Airways "World Tails" were widely seen and loved by admirers worldwide. It wasn't, however, enough to convince British Airways to maintain them. They began disappearing from the world's airports in 2003 and with few exceptions are mostly gone today. The "BA World Tails" calendar features various British Airways, and two commuter airlines, photographs with each showing a different world tail. One photo shows a BA 747 with the popular "Wanula Dreaming" tail at the end of 04L at JFK while the British Airways Concorde soars overhead after departing 31L. A definite collector's item.

Frontier Airlines has been around for years surviving today as a low cost airline based out of Denver. With its reinvention as a low cost airline came the slogan A Whole Different Animal and the now familiar wildlife images adorning the rudder of the aircraft. For those in Denver these tails are common, but outside of Denver they are rare. At a rate of one or two flights a day it would take a lifetime to capture all the different tails. To do that you need to visit Denver, or for a quicker and less costly alternative buy A Whole Different Animal calendar and enjoy twelve different tails over the next twelve months!

Where have all the smokers gone? Gone to the boneyard almost everyone. Step back thirty years and you are almost at the beginning of the commercial jet age. Things were much different then. Departing aircraft more often than not left long trails of dense dark smoke behind them routinely. Something rarely seen today. While our environment may be cleaner and less noisy, we still miss the airliners of the past that were known for these heavy smoke trails. The Smokers of the Past calendar brings these aircraft back to life for the next twelve months.
