N728PA was sold in the Philippines as a government aircraft with the registration RP-C911. It ended up a restaurant. But before then it was owned by notorious financier Robert Vesco, who installed a luxury interior and operated it as N99WT before it was repossessed by Pan Am.

No aerobridges, no pushback, just taxi in and taxi out. Sydney was Australia's busiest airline hub in 1966 but the activity paled by US and European standards. The positive for a boy with a basic camera was no security and you could walk onto the apron to take a photo.

It was a surprise on my first visit to Camden to see a Walrus. Did not know such a rare aircraft existed in Australia. It was explained this was not a Walrus but its predecessor, the almost identical pre-World War II Seagull V. In 1969 VH-ALB was restored with an intention of flying it in the London-Sydney air race in December that year. It did not make the start line. Then on January 27, 1970, it crashed at Taree, New South Wales. The battered aircraft was sold to the RAF Museum, where it has been restored as a static display.

PH-DCM was one of the most photographed KLM DC-8s because it had KLM colours on the left side and Viasa colours on the right. Much less common are photos of it also marked "Operated by PAL" as seen in Sydney in 1966.
