Yes, remember the Maersk 720’s and 737’s. Can’t remember which night was “Yugoslav” night but remember JAT, Aviogenex etc too!

Well acording to my ‘sacred diaries’ we used to see JAT on Sat afternoons at around 1230z and it was usually a DC9-30, although on a couple of visits we were treated to a 727-200. Back in those 80s we had a 6 week period of two AN12s, namely YU-AIC and AID, visiting with two flights each day on Tue and Thu, uplifting ordinance. These flights carried JU flight numbers but had military crews and did not carry JAT insignia. JAT would occasionally operate a cargo charter via STN with 707s. Aviogenex used to pop in every Sat afternoon with 727-200s, sometimes 2 at once! one to Split and the other to Pula The 134s used to seem to appear for a while at the beginning and end of the season although I do have logged a Friday night operation with the 134s but sadly I have not recorded the destination. Well thats bored u all to death so I’ll leave it there:) Oh and don’t even get me started on the Spantax Coronados!!
