There's a name for people like us. AV Geeks; Plane Groupies; AV Nerds – you'd be surprised how many of your fellow travellers fall in love at the sight of a mystical creature of man-made flight.

Airplanes are not only impressive for their ability to fly, but also their design from inside and out. Plane spotting is a regular activity for some and airplane-focused hashtags populate millions of Instagram and Twitter feeds.

It's time Flight Centre participated in this sensational obsession by showcasing our favourite images of planes. Let's get our AV binge on.
