Lovely picture Vintage - just look at that apron- probably the Court Line/Dan-Air One Elevens and Britannia 737s had all gone - and there was just a Midland Viscount doing a Channel Islands Run and Monarch Brit - they kept odd hours taking seven hours round trip to Palma. Looks like it might have needed one of your SRAs to get in if 08 was in use. All three favoured nose out parking IIRC- only saw Viscounts and Brits pushed towards the end of their service lives.

BTW could it be earlier than 1970 given the stage of construction of hangar 89 - in which case edit Court Line to Autair
