Interesting, there were a couple of Super Constellations at Faro, until about 1980, they had been involved in Biafra, ran out of money and fuel.. They had a tidy up and one became an Airfield Bar (short lived) the other was scrapped. There was also a DC3 out near the thresh hold, that was scrapped too.
What caught my eye was the Sao Tomé bit. I made a bunch of 'artistic' light fixtures for a new hotel there. The hotel was quite up market, unlike the rest of the Island. Bizzar.
