Have some phots somewhere. First and only Caravelle flights.
I remember a couple of them at Glasgow in '72. They belonged to a subsidiary of Air France.(Air Inter?)
Landed on 06 and both streamed their brake chutes; they then taxied in one behind the other with the brake chutes still attached and waving about in the jet efflux until they parked!!
