BEA Le Bourget 1971?
BEA Le Bourget 1971?
My first commercial jet flight as a passenger was towards the end of May 1971, in a BEA Trident ex-Le Bourget (Paris). However, I have read elsewhere that BEA stopped operating from there in the late 1960's. Any update/info on this please? (I had an open single ticket and remember the choice was either - an Air France 727 ex-Orly or, the above and naturally, wanted to try out the British product!)

BEA had been flying into both Le Bourget and Orly since 1968.
The last flight from Le Bourget was in October 1971.
