Zurich 1996

[LondonEye]

Twenty-four years ago back in June 1996, we had our first Swiss holiday. The wife kindly let us make a mid-week visit back to the airport, where we went on the airfield bus tour.
Pictures are from both tour and viewing area. Airlines that are gone, types disappearing etc - a blast from the past that I hope you will find fun at this time.

More on FlickR if you are a glutton for punishment ! Pete.

What a wonderful set of mostly long gone aircraft, I just love the dinky Turkish 146 in the first shot as it looks like someone's nicked large sections of the fuselage!

Great stuff.

Not forgetting the lovely rare 747-300, only 81 built.
