Old Magazines etc.

I’ve spent the last two afternoon’s clearing stuff from my loft. 😮

I don’t think I still need tickets for a British Eagle flight to Luxembourg, from 1966.
Or for a flight on A British United 1-11 to Wildenrath when I was in the ATC in 1970.
I just don’t like to throw them away though. :rolleyes:

I have outed 2 years worth of Water-Ski magazines though !!

Six “Observers book of aircraft” 60s -70s

I have a stack of Flight International magazines from 1969-70, as well
as a year or two’s worth of Flying Review International magazines.

A set of Air Pictorials from 1967

I think magazines will be destined for the tip, unless there’s any particular
issue that anyone would like. More than one and the postage is expensive.

I don’t want anything for them, not that they have any real value anyway.

I can’t think of anything else to do with them.

Of course the process of clearing the loft is taking longer than planned.
I keep having to thumb through the magazines. 🙂

Just found this while looking at :http://www.aeroflight.co.uk/mags/uk/ukmag05.htm

‘FlyPast’ has a very eccentric policy regarding the Internet: it’s regular review of aviation heritage-related websites never includes the web address. It is not clear whether this is due to the arrogant assumption that the older demographic of its readership cannot type accurately, or that the reviews are simply a stunt to promote hits on the ‘FlyPast’ website.

Made me laugh. Is this still the case ?

Just a general tidy up. It’s mostly stuff that was brought from home when I
got married. 28yrs ago !

Also found a Channel Airways shoulder bag that my sister gave me. She used
to be a stewardess at Southend.

A two man tent as well, only used once.

I’ll hang on to the magazines for a little while, but a lot of stuff went in a
bonfire earlier.

What are you clearing the loft for? Conversion or just general tidying?

Whereabouts are you ?

The magazines weigh a ton (well nearly), far too expensive to post
