I flew the Goodyear Blimp Europa to Edinburgh from Sunderland on July 1st, 1977. I flew around Edinburgh until July 5th (included). Could that have been the week in which the pictures were taken?

It could well have been - unfortunately I didn't record the date. I was hoping nice people (like you!) would be able to tell me......!!
