München-Riem

October 1978

 

G-BFGM

Boeing 727-95

19249 / 304

Dan-Air London

 

This Dan-Air scheme looked fine on the B727! The first report I have of this airframe at Riem is from 28 May 1978 as G-BFGM with Dan-Air London. The plane would return as 4X-BAE with Arkia (in basic Avianca colours) in 1984 (13 April, 13 October) and then as EI-BIU with Club Air in August 1987.
