30 years ago

I was lucky enough to sample quite a few more rides on board Seven Ohs. Today, let's board N794TW, a TWA 331C still then doning the big red arrow cheatline and the double globe, on her way back to New York/JFK ...


The ticket cover and passenger's coupon.

A classic hand-written two coupon



Her highness of the time N794TW donning the iconic outfit. And proudly sitting on the apron of Nice Airport while boarding is conducted on the good old way in the open air.
I travelled solo, as almost ever, but when queuing, I got set to share the ride with a former school principal and wife going for a vacation together with two former female classmates. Enough to come up with this

short but concise flight report



Bienvenidos a Barcelona. Good to be asked to deplane during the call .Even 30 years later and despite the lack of quality, this close up of the JT3D3 and tail section flying the classic "Double-Globe" remains one of my favorite snapshots.

Another shot while the quintessentially Spanish trailer+tractor duet sets its way to the distant terminal building.
