Classic Caravelle photos

[happytraveller]

More photos from today's outing with the camera at Stockholm Arlanda ARN airport. 10 minutes after getting these photos, the sun started to disappear, the days are short up here at this time of year.

First flight for the Caravelle was 1955, and over 280 aircraft were built by the Sud Aviation company (who later went on to co-operate in the Concorde designs). The Caravelle carried about 80 passengers and had a range of about 1700km.

Just look at those big windows!!! Was the Caravelle and early Dreamliner?









smooth landings.
