nostalgia

my very first flight as a wee lad was YUL-PIK (Montreal to Prestwick) in jan 1973 on a BOAC 707. My family was embarking on a 9 month stay in Edinburgh.

Who knows, maybe PPRuNer BOAC was in command or on the FD. i have never been back to PIK since. and of course i have no memory of the airport that cold morning. but i hope the place thrives. it has an important place in my life long affair with aviation!

i'll send a nice bottle of champagne to anyone who can (with proof) let me know the flight number BOAC used in 73 for YUL - PIK!

people who look it up on the internet need not apply!
