    Good pics. In the first picture of the Merlin, it's a pity that there happens to be a guy's head exactly covering the handle of the famous emergency door which later fell off. If you have a pic showing the door in full with the handle in view you can send it to the AAIU who would be most interested in it. It probably fell off because someone fiddled with it. Mind you, the crew really should have spotted it. Pre flight inspection means just that.
