Photo Comment

Built in 1958 for Continental Air Lines where it was N245V. Imported in March 1967 and since June 1972 on charter to Alidair out of East Midlands Airport (EGNX), still in Channel livery. This was taken from the then public viewing area adjacent to taxiways A and B during a visit from Canada. A far cry from the early days when we used to hang out with the Luton spotters wherever we could get away with it.
