Photo Comment

BOAC-Cunard's 707s rarely were seen away from their Atlantic routes and this was the only time I photographed one. The Kangaroo Route was always busiest from Christmas to the end of January when many Australian businesses closed and workers went on holidays. It was during this peak in 1966 BOAC borrowed from its joint venture with Cunard.
