The first Dash 8 for Malev had been painted at EMA and it is seen here departing, returning to Copenhagen to be prepared for delivery to Malev. It became HA-LQC.

Delivered to Malev in 12.62 and seen here still in the original colours, about to touch down on 10L. Converted to freighter in 1979; last flight 22.11.87 to Szolnok museum

Looking magnificent in Malev colours, this Il-14 never in fact flew with the airline. It is an ex-Soviet AF example (ex 04 red) that was beautifully restored a couple of years before this shot, being given the next-in-sequence registration to follow those which were assigned to the Malev Il-14 fleet in the late 1950s (HA-MAA to HA-MAK). HA-MAL was actually allocated to an An-2

A Hungarian Government aircraft, built in 1974 and leased to Malev for scheduled services during summer 1981, later joining the airline as HA-LBN after conversion to A-3 standard. Joined Kolavia's fleet as RA-65944 in 2000

Seen here before conversion to Tu-154B-2.

Early production Tu-154 delivered to Malev in September 1973. Had been converted to Tu-154B-2 by 1980.

Taxying to the terminal on arrival with many C-130E Hercules of the USAF coded 'LM' in the background.

A rare visit of type and airline to Speke when operating a one-off charter flight.

In memory of things past. This airframe was broken up after little more than ten years of service, shortly after Malev ceased operations.

Continued its career with Tranaero and later with Southwest after Malev's demise in 2012.

Here in the later colours, this 1971-vintage 134 was wfu in late 1994 after an incident in which the crew had to cut a hole with the fire axe in order to force the landing gear to lower. B/u at BUD early 1997

HA-MOI leaving the East apron, on its way to the take-off runway for the return flight to Budapest. It is taxiing with its doors still open, which may indicate it's carrying a cargo of livestock. On such flights the doors are kept open as long as possible to reduce the heat inside the aircraft.
Less than three months after this photo was taken, HA-MOI made its last commercial flight and was later used as a restaurant in Abda, Hungary. In late 2014 it went to the Múzeum letectva Košice.
