Yep, first one is I think a Fokker 100, great little airplane and I suspect that's Schipol.

Schipol was my first and only thought, but I don't know it that well so couldn't really say

A bit of info and a another clue might help.
Yes Ben and Garry are correct in identifying the F100 and Schipol.In the third pic the aircraft would probably have been at about FL 80/70ish.
The route on the next four pics was from Gatwick to Perth WA,which might help a bit.

ps,look carefully at the lower part of pic4,you should just be able to see a bridge.You might also be able see a bridge in pic5

No,the type is a 767-200 of Britannia. I think it was just before they started taking delivery of the 300 series.The date of departure was 2/11/95 and the flight required two fuel/ crew change stops,first at Dubai(IIRC) and next at Singapore.
The views shown in pic4 is the Bosphorus at Istanbul which was a little further away than it seems because I used a moderate zoom lens.
Pic 5 shows the island of Penang off the west coast of Malaysia.Geeorge town,the capital,can be clearly seen.
The inlet in pic 6 is Shark Bay,about 500 miles north of Perth.
Finally and rather less exotic,pic 3 was in the descent over Leicester.
