Hello, just subscribed after stumbling across the thread and what a fascinating and interesting trip to years past it is. I first visited LUTON on 24/10/1984 and up until recently was a fairly regular visitor. I even had two short spells working there, 1988/89 for Royal Mail on the mail flights and 1998/99 as a ramp agent for Reed Aviation.
I still have over 140 pages to read but I have already been reminded of the weekly flight sheets picked up at the office, Dave Gearings photos, the visits to both the Britannia and Monarch hangars and even a ramp tour back in the 1980's and I'm hoping to find some reference to the spotters magazine "EGGWords", some of which i still have, never did get a complete collection and can't find any either nowadays.
A fantastic thread and one which has reminded me of the airport of old and how old I actually am now. Thank you everyone for the memories.
