No air bridges in those days at Adelaide Airport. We had a new terminal but passengers still walked across the tarmac to their waiting aircraft. Air bridges were still a little way off. Virgin Blue hadn't long been in the air in Oz when this was taken. The airline may have been new but the aircraft weren't, VGA having begun service with China Airlines in November 1996, registered B-18671.
