A Couple of Classic Airliner shots

From my dusty archive. Not great quality unfortunately but they have memories for me. The B & W shot was taken by my Dad at Freetown airport in Sierra Leone and is unusual in showing the VC 10 in what was then the new BUA Livery and the 1-11 in the old BUA livery. I always thought the BUA VC 10s in this livery looked classier than the BOAC ones.
PS apologies for the sellotape marks – I had them taped to my desk at school.

Many thanks Paul. I really wish I had taken more but I was after registrations rather than pictures at the time unfortunately.

Many thanks for your kind comments Jamie. I suppose 30 years from now the younger members of the forum will be posting pics of 747-400 and A-330/340s etc as Golden Oldies. Time passes too quickly :p
