Cathay Pacific Boeing 777-300ER · B-KQD

About This Photo

The primary subject is a Cathay Pacific Boeing 777 aircraft positioned sideways on a runway or taxiway. The aircraft is clearly identifiable by the large "CATHAY PACIFIC" text on the forward fuselage and the airline's distinctive green and white brushwing logo on the vertical tail fin. The airplane is stationary on the ground, with its wheels fully deployed and resting on a concrete or paved surface lined with large rocks or a breakwater adjacent to a body of water. The plane’s orientation is left to right, with the nose pointing toward the left side of the image, showing the aircraft in profile. Secondary subjects include a port or industrial area visible in the background, featuring multiple large red and yellow gantry cranes typically used for container shipping. Numerous shipping containers are stacked beneath the cranes, indicating a busy maritime logistics environment. The scene is set outdoors with a cloudy sky overhead, diffused daylight, and calm water in the foreground. No other aircraft, ground vehicles, personnel, or airport terminal structures are visible within the frame. The runway or taxiway is elevated on a rock embankment above the waterline, and a small buoy or marker floats in the water near the rocks.
