Love the photos, and echo everyone's sentiments for more to be scanned!

Out of curiousity, in the second photograph of the BOAC jet, there's a Philippines Air Lines jet in the background which I liked seeing. What jet would that be?


Thanks!

Still looking for the VC-10's. I'm not very organised, meanwhile.............











Cheers

Another great set of shots Anthony! I like the first one especially the background and no third runway! I also like the old brown terminals with those pathetic excuses of windows.........at least they have made progress in that front and put plenty of windows along the gates at that pier.

I concur with Sarah, great shots despite their age.

Just as a matter of interest, what equipment are you using to scan slides?
I need to get a new printer soon and want one with a slide scan option.

Thanks Anthony, will try DSE as I might get a new camera as well.

I don't have many airliner slides but lots of negatives to play with.

Question for the BOAC experts in the group re the first photo in this threat.

The photo shows a BOAC B707 with what appears to be noise suppressors fitted to the engines not unlike the ones fitted to the first first Qantas B707-138s. I was always under the impression that BOAC's B707s were fitted with RR Conways, the same type used on their VC10s. I know that the Conways were very noisy (Hush Power ha ha) but can't remember if they were fitted with noise suppressors. Any thoughts?
