Yes was quite wet with the wind from the south. Micheal La Vell [aka Kevin wesbster from the street was there too with his dogs]
I remember the 1st 747, my dad took me. I remember going in terminal 1 at the original entrance with the arched canopies up the stairs, passing the old chandaliers & down to the window as it was early evening.
That I think kicked off my interest. The old viewing days were great, the sights, smell & the noise. Would always cycle down as much as possible after school especially on divert days to see piers A & B full of widebodies. I've seen a few 1st's. Like concorde, space shuttle etc etc, tried to make a career in flying but failed. lack of funds & women!!!!!
