Ah, Paul! Those bring back some great memories, especially the LGW shots. ;). Thanks for posting.  A nice '104 in later scheme, a rare sight as most were in the Natural metal scheme.  Nice to see LN-SUN, too.  Some other regulars, including N101AW and those Lufty Beechs.

Lovely collection Paul. Thanks for posting.     

 

Just one small correction - SX-DBI was a Boeing 720, not a 707.

Very interesting selection.  The LH 737 was of course a -130 series, which was slightly shorter than the -200.

That was my "plane spotting" era too so I recognise quite a few of those aircraft. I was a Dublin spotter so some of those were regular visitors at that time.

thanks for comments and corrections.  Much appreciated. I was never and still not one for being fussy about sub types that much, unless it was /  is important to know.

 But I should have noticed the B720 though.
