Photo Comment

As seen from the Queens Building, this aircraft is touching down on runway 28L. This is one of the two VC10s that I flew in. The old BOAC advert for the VC10 was 'Love at first flight.' It certainly was for me. Taken with a borrowed 400mm lens which weighed about the same as a brick, rather like the Bigma I use today actually !
