Photo Comment

Just departing after what would have been a fuel stop from Europe to the US west coast is this 1968 built DC-8. The first five windows are blanked so likely carrying cargo on a USAF/MAC combi charter. In those days there was a public viewing area with three-foot railing on the terminal roof. As can be seen from the bottom RH corner, I was not above hopping over the railing if necessary to get my shot!
