Beautiful shots again Robert – I used to fly out to Abu Dhabi and Doha on those Gulf Air VC 10s before they were replaced by Gulf Air’s “5 star Tristars”.
The Caravelles were nice looking aircraft but I once flew on a Luxair one and found that because of my long back I had to bend to look out of the window.

Simply brilliant. Love the 747 classics, especially the SQ. I had no idea that PA had dedicated 747 freighters.
