A splendid array of Caravelles could be seen at Athens in the Eighties - I was fortunate enough to catch 10 different examples on camera over my two visits. This one was originally Sabena's OO-SRE delivered in 3.61 and sold to Catair in 5.76, passing on to EAS (still in SN colours) then Corse Air just over a year prior to this shot. Wfu at Chateauroux 2.87 and preserved by the airport but later scrapped

Based at the little-known secondary Almaty airfield of Burundai, since re-named Boraldai, this An-30 was first delivered to AFL/Kazakhstan in 6.78 and was one of a number seen that day. Prior to closing down in 2010, the company was only involved in helicopter operations and the Antonovs already looked pretty inactive by the time of this visit. Had a great Mil-8 flight up into the Kazakh alps from here same day

One of very few Western types in evidence at that time, this 737 is seen in front of the striking new terminal under construction. Built 1980; formerly OO-TEO, 4X-ABM, TC-AJK and HA-LEB. UN-B3706 from 12.98 to 3.04 and then PK-YTC with Batavia, later stored

Rarely photographed in these eye-catching colours which almost made up for the lack of the forecast sun, I seem to recall that they'd put the titles on the other side of the tail in similar fashion but up-side-down! Despite having proper authority for ramp access, was soon chased away by unfriendly soldiers. Registered YR-ARB a few days later. Briefly with Acvila Air before this and no stranger to BBU from new in 1975 as Tarom's YR-BMG. Seen in Kiev during 2004 in an untitled purple livery as ER-AZH

One of three 727s bought by Ethiopian and delivered in 10.79, this example was wfu at Shannon in 8.92 and stored as N979AL, eventually being converted to a freighter and leased by All Canada Express as C-FACJ in from 1.97. Operated in UPS colours but repainted in All Canada's own livery shortly before becoming C-GUJC in 5.03 and appearing in CargoJet Airways scheme - very smart, but nobody will beat that wonderful original ET paintwork!

One of three 727s bought by Ethiopian and delivered in 10.79, this example was wfu at Shannon in 8.92 and stored as N979AL, eventually being converted to a freighter and leased by All Canada Express as C-FACJ in from 1.97. Operated in UPS colours but repainted in All Canada's own livery shortly before becoming C-GUJC in 5.03 and appearing in CargoJet Airways scheme - very smart, but nobody will beat that wonderful original ET paintwork!

Of the 541 of this 1937 shipboard reconnaissance design built, 12 were flown from Varna by the Bulgarian Navy during WWII. This one was almost destroyed in a post-war purge against items of Nazi origin but was hidden away, and is now one of only three complete examples in the world, the other two being in the US
