N80FA (cn 10273/7) Working at Southend Airport in the 'Seventies produced some great opportunities. Just before N80FA departed on its ferry flight to Texas, I was able to fix up an air-to-air session from Cessna 172 G-ATLN. We flew as fast as possible, the Carvair as slow as it could with everything down. I can still hear those P&Ws roaring over the sound of my open window and the general racket in the Cessna. I even sold my car to one of the Falcon directors who duly loaded and flew home to the States with it - truly Car-via-air as Freddie Laker originally intended. This aircraft crashed in Alaska in 1997 as N103; another of the few remaining Carvairs suffered a similar fate up there in May 2007, so now only two survive. |

Not the ordinary office ... what would you give for a view like that? All important screens in one picture (left to right): pushback tug schedule, arrivals/departures with parking positions, weather information, ground radar, flight status information, lots of camera views, ATC radar + airport lighting control. Plus lots of buttons, phones and microphones. Outside you can see a small part of the full cargo apron with 6 of the 17 widebodies (A300F, B762F, B763F + MD-11F). The passenger terminal area can be seen on the upper left side. |
