That was the only livery used by Balkan Bulgairan at that time….and unless someone knows differently I am fairly certain there was no such other operator. The pic I posted a link for was in 1992, and was the only livery used by the Airline at that time. Note also, it is a different airline altogether to the airline shown in Future Pilots links (that airline, BH Air is still in operation)

Got you.

Pretty sure the Balkan pic you linked to is what I flew on (in 92 also).

Some great pics there! Hopefully someone will have some from the mid 90’s..that livery really doesn’t ring any bells!

I didn’t realise it was only fairly recently that they stopped.

My dad recalls the flight with horror…”a bloody steep descent with screaming engines and lots of uneasy faces”…as he put it

I remember nothing of it at all.
