The large jetty in the centre of this view is Tilbury passenger terminal. The docks are just before it, Tilbury fort just beyond and Tilbury B power station's chimneys are in the distance. This was taken from a Vickers Viscount during a scenic flight in 1996 to commemorate the type's retirement from commercial service.
