Welcome to ‘The Bearpit’ 😉

I once flew on an Intra Airways DC3 from LGW to JER, back in the mid 70s. It was supposed to have been a Viscount, which did bring us home a week later 🙂

Some nice images:) Great looking DC3.

Some dramatic shots, especially the Voyager.

Thanks for sharing, some classy shots.

Very much harder to find, the one I have is in some kind of fictitious colours, although it doesn’t look unpleasant. The same DDR toy company, also made tin plate IL62s, of which I have one. They made two livery versions, one fictitious, and the other in KLM! The models are quite large, and very much a product of their time. My custom 1/72 BAADE 152 model, is in the prototype colours, as seen in that black and white image. It is a fascinating aircraft, and there is a wonderful East German publicity film about it on You Tube, just search under BAADE 152. It’s in German of course, but the pics more than make up for that, and its in colour!

Some more nice ones there Peter. I knew nothing of that particular VC10 incident.

Perhaps the establishment of an autonomous Utilities department of government in public ownership and without union representation. With an administration comprising either civil servants or, people with a record of unblemished public or private service chosen for their recognition and acceptance of the special social value that is a feature of the provision of the utilities. All of whom are subject to a panel of ‘watchdogs’ in the shape of Ombudsmen.

John, there’s no way that you would ever be any good as a politician, you talk far too much common sense.
