Cathay Pacific Cargo Boeing 747-8i · B-LJG

About This Photo

The primary subject is a white cargo aircraft branded with "CATHAY PACIFIC CARGO" in green letters along the fuselage, identified as a Boeing 747-8F freighter based on its distinct shape and four engines. The aircraft is in the process of taking off, oriented nose-up with wheels partially retracted, clearly ascending from the runway. The vertical stabilizer features the Cathay Pacific brushwing logo in green and white. The registration code "B-LJD" is visible near the tail along with a small Hong Kong flag. Secondary subjects include other aircraft partially visible on the ground, featuring similar Cathay Pacific livery with green brushwing tails, parked near large hangars or maintenance buildings. Ground equipment such as service vehicles, ramps, and aviation infrastructure occupy the tarmac area. The surrounding environment shows a coastal airport setting with visible water in the background, some cranes, shipping vessels, and construction sites indicate proximity to a harbor or port. The sky is overcast with diffused lighting, suggesting midday under cloudy or hazy conditions.
