Indeed, the early 80’s regular Iberia (Aviaco) 747 to TFS used to cause great excitment.

A timeless livery:cool:

Thanks for those:)

When you see a 747 parked up at an airport not really geared up for it shows just how big the thing is.

Large airports with 747 scaled facilities veiwed at some distance spoils the effect

Hugh, Great shots,

As i recall, this was the return leg as the first one diverted to MAN !!!
I think it was a special charter for schoolkids to Rome.

Very nice 🙂 The Alitalia livery always looked good on a B747.
