Hello everybody!
I finally found time to resume my archive scanning. I'm almost done with 1998, which was a busy year. In August I also visited Frankfurt for about three days. Here's an impression of those (warm and great) days. Enjoy!
1. First of is this good looking classic DC-10 from Continental:

2. Which had a great surprise, because this was the other side of the DC-10... VASP!
