Excellent pictures Kaplan! I do like the BA viscount shots and the Dan Air 748 pic is great. Nice to see you got the scanner working again. 🙂
I just gave it a tap with a hammer..
Yeah they looked great, I console myself with this little model now… 🙁
Snap?

Now that doesn’t look too bad.
Check the right rudder, he’s aiming for a point 🙂

Wonder what was with the funny parking positions at the then international pier. Most aircraft in those days appeared to come towards gate then turn away rather than nose in.
No tow-bars for either the Tu-154 or the IL-62 in those days, or indeed these days at least for the Tu-154 apparently!

Hi,
Great photos! 🙂
I noticed something in your other thread with the scanned ‘nostalgia’ photos that I meant to mention … in the third photo, with the BA plane in the foreground , …. check out the STAIRS!! 😮 Somehow I doubt they would get past the Health & Safety chaps these days! :rolleyes:

The BA Viscount? If it’s the steps at the forward port door well these were for the engineers/ground crew use only, pax entered by the port aft door. 😉

Those IL-62 Tarom shots are brilliant! More of these are welcome anytime! All very nice shots.

Thanks! Just need to sort out the scanner!
