Not My Average Airbus

Post by WingNut » Tue Mar 06, 2018 1:39 am

I'm old enough to remember the Lockheed Constellation and when I saw this
1997 Airbus A319-114 landing at YVR on Saturday because of the paint it instantly
reminded me of watching those wonderful aircraft back in the 50's.
My father would take me to YWG and together we would " spot " all day long. It also
made me think of TWA and their paint scheme. Regardless of how close it is sparking
those childhood memories is pure magic.

I'm always a fan of retro liveries, a really nice aircraft and pictures.
