Photo Comment

Not the best of photos but a very rare shot of an A300 using two air bridges. Still a very new aircraft when this photo was taken. Only delivered 5 months before on the 19th of March 1976. Leased to Air Algerie by 10 Nov 1982. Returned to Airbus on 14 Dec 1983. Leased to Northeastern Airlines as F-ODRD on 29 May 1984 then to Indian Airlines in May 1986. Reregistered to VT-ELV on 22 Aug 1985. Damaged beyond repair at Madras on 29 Sep 1986 when it overran the runway.
