Civilian Aviation

Pics taken from the viewing area at Paris Orly during visits made during the Paris Airshow in 1989 & 1991.

Some real gems in there - in fact every one of them.DC-9s Caravelles and F.27s - True 1980s nostalgia!

Great stuff, loads of good memories there.

A blast from the past with some of those airlines.
Well done.
Whose Caravelle in the shot with the South African B747 ?

I've enjoyed looking through these as I too have good memories of the viewing deck. Always great variety at Orly and lots of airlines and types from north Africa.

I'm pleased you've enjoyed the pics - I'll scan a few more when I get time..
Pete - I didn't record anything on the reverse of the photograph sadly but seem to think it may have been Air Toulouse Intl.

Done a bit of digging- reckon it is AERO FRANCE International.
