Hello everybody,
I have finally finished up scanning all my 1998 pictures, so expect some more topics with blasts from the past of 1998. Todays topic is about Madrid-Barajas. Visiting Madrid in August wasn't probably the best idea, scorching hot and a lot of heatwaves. Spotting was done from the cool lounge area in Terminal 2, where pictures could be taken from one door, which had the only non-tinted window in the buidling... Anyway, on with the pictures.
1. Starting off with this BAe146 from Paukn Air. This plane would crash a month later at Melilla, killing everyone on board...

2. Of course, Iberia was very present. Here a nice B757.

12. A normal Aerolineas Argentinas B747-200. The colors are, as you can see, very similar to Iberia. Iberia was a major shareholders back in those days.
