Reliving the past thanks to Stan the Man!

More from the past brought back with yet more freeware.

Just found these textures which have brought back some memories of the late 70's early 80's.

I lived close to Southampton (Eastleigh as it was then) Airport and the old BIA Heralds were a common sight. Then along came Air UK and the Heralds were painted in the very attractive blue livery.

Now the memory is fading and I cannot remember if F-27's operated regularly from Eastleigh although I can remember seeing Air Anglia F-27's on a few occasions.

Anyway here is a flight from Ostend to Norwich.

Never went to Norfolk of Suffolk but I did have two great school trips to Ostend in the 60's.

Not a great landing thanks to the mobile ringing just on touchdown. How many times this sort of thing happens at a crucial part of a flight!

Does this happen to you or is just me?

Shot 4 will give a clue to the post's title.

Great sets, love that blue repaint &... oh my moblie is ringing must go... ;)

As always your contextualization of the sequence of shots increases our knowledge in regional aspects and its airplanes history.

 

Thank you mate.

 

Great shots here!

Many thanks gents for your comments which are greatly appreciated.
