Inex-Adria MD80 YU-ANA, on approach to Ajaccio, December 1981.

On the Tupolev flight, it was LOT in 1976 out of CDG -- I distinctly remember vibration. Would it have been a Tu-134 then?
Most likely. First LOT Tu154 came 10 years later. But any aircraft can have vibration. The most substantial I ever experienced was on a BA 747.
