BEA BAC 1-11 LHR to Moscow 1968 to spend 2 years in Mogilev (now Belarus) for my dad's work. Don't remember much about the flight but the phrase "better dead than red" still resonates!
Slightly off thread but I always enjoyed letting my plank wing brethren have a clutch of the mighty Wokka. They could usually hover the thing well enough (until I took the AFCS off!) but transitioning to and from that state often proved beyond them. It was usually their first go in a helo and they never failed to walk off the cab without a huge grin on their face!
