HB-JIB, McDonnell Douglas MD-90-30, British Jet, taxiing the last few metres to Gate 202 on Terminal 2 at Manchester Airport, 22nd January 2006, as seen from the top of the T1 car park.
The airlines name is ironic, given that the jet aircraft in question was neither built in Britain, nor registered there.
It was also built by McDonnell Douglas, but the text on the engines suggests it was built by Boeing.
This was built shortly before Boeing bought McDonnell Douglas in August 1997, hence the apparent discrepancy.
A shorter version of the MD90, the MD-95, was re-named "Boeing 717".

Side view of a long, thin, twin engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, taxiing from left to right.
The plane is mostly white, with a wavy red stripe running along the body, and dark blue "BritishJet.com" titles on the lower forward fuselage.
The black registration "HB-JIB" is on the upper rear fuselage, in front of the engines, next to a small Swiss flag.
The white engine pods on the rear fuselage have black "Boeing MD-90" on the side.
The tail is dark blue, with a stylised red sun on the front edge.
Grey-brown concrete apron fills the foreground and most of the background, with a couple of other jet airliners in the top left corner.
