Etihad Airways Boeing 787-9 · A6-BND

About This Photo

The primary subject is an Etihad Airways Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft, identified by the model shape, with registration A6-BND visible near the tail. The plane sports a special Manchester City football club-themed livery, primarily light blue with white geometric patterns on the tail and the Manchester City badge prominently displayed on the engine cowling. The word "MANCHESTER" appears clearly alongside the Etihad logo on the forward fuselage. The aircraft is captured during takeoff, with the nose gear slightly off the runway and the main wheels just touching down, indicating rotation and initial climb. In the background, there is a grassy airport runway environment with a mix of industrial buildings, trees, and residential houses beyond the airport boundary, suggesting a mixed-use area near the airport. The weather is clear with bright lighting indicating daylight, possibly early morning or late afternoon based on the warm light and long shadows. No other aircraft, ground vehicles, personnel, or airport equipment are visible in the image. The sky is not prominently visible, but the absence of clouds and strong sunlight indicate clear sky conditions. The runway surface is asphalt with visible white runway markings.
