Kai Tak Vol 2 - updated

[waghorn41]

Just a few random photos, all taken between March 1975 and March 1977.
Thai DC8 in the then brand new livery, Party for Concorde demonstrator, Martinair DC8, KLM DC10, Transvalair CL44.
Sometimes what's in the background is more interesting...

Great stuff - loving the tents for the Concorde party.

I can't wait to see some more.

And a few more:
Lockheed L100 of Philipines Aerotransport (RP-C101) - got a photo of her sister ship RP-C100 too, China Airlines B747 on the famous rooftop approach to the runway, Grumman Gulfstream - but the background aircraft are far more interesting!, HS125 RP-C111, Canadian Pacific Air B747 - 'Empress of Canada', Japan Air Lines Cargo DC8, TMA Lebanon cargo B707, SATA DC8 during the monsoon, hence the poor image, Northwest Orient B707 and for all the Concorde fans the demonstrator - got some close ups of this aircraft which I'll post later. If these are to your liking I've got plenty more.

Excellent... particularly like the last Concorde shots!

Got any VC10s in the collection?

VC10s?
Well if you look carefully in the monsoon photo there's an RAF VC10 behind the SATA DC8! Actually I know I've got some VC10 shots at Kai Tak and also some at Heathrow c1977/8. Kai Tak will be BA - and maybe BOAC - and RAF, LHR I think will be Ghana.

I'll do a separate thread for Heathrow
