Some recent posts reminded me of the old days and the fact that the readership covers a wide range of ages. Not everyone appreciates the variety of airlines and aircraft that have used the airport in the past.
I used to be quite an enthusiast around the time of the runway extension and took quite a number of pictures. I was inspired to put a number of them on the link below. I hope that they are of interest. Some, but not all, have been published elsewhere before.
Please bear in mind that pre-digital images didn't carry date details, so I may be a year or so out with some of the captions. If anyone remembers details more clearly than me, let me know!
Thanks to one or two friends who supplied me with pictures when I couldn't be around and to members of ATC past and present who made it possible to capture some images from interesting locations.
I have many more pictures that I could add if there is sufficient interest, but the highlights have probably been included.
Regards,
FY
