Default What Airline? - Manchester Tails Picture Quiz

I have knocked together a little picture quiz for my brother and
while the group is a bit quiet I thought that some of you here might find it
a diversion.

For the tails with lettering I'm looking for what they stand for rather than
just the airline name, as for the others, some names are very easy and
some may be just easy. Hopefully one or two are a bit more tricky.

Please note - I wont be marking anything!

I intend posting a picture of the answers on
Sunday for you to see how well you did.

Its just bit bit of fun hopefully. The tails are all from pictures I took at
Manchester (UK) between 2007 and 2010, so apologies to those who are less
familiar with carriers flying around Europe who might find some a bit harder
to recognise.

I hope some may have enjoyed this.
Aircraft type and registration are given purely for information.
I should say that Royal Aviation Society for KLM is also a fair answer for
number 2 and that E&OE.
