Apron strings
Passengers board Caravelle SE-210 10-R EC-BRJ, named Renacuajo III, in the fleet of Spanish carrier Transeuropa Compañía de Aviación at Bristol's Lulsgate airport on Wednesday 9th April 1980.
Amazingly, I have some notes about this aircraft's presence at Bristol that day. Maybe I thought I was going to pursue 'plane-spotting too? From those notes I was able to confirm the date, the aircraft type and the fact that it had arrived at 14:15 from Tenerife and returned there at 15:15. However, I had written down the registration incorrectly as EC-BRG. Thanks to ƒliçkrwåy for suggesting the aircraft's true identity.
I couldn't resist the temptation to make a musical reference here. Apron Strings is a track from Idlewild by Everything but the Girl, one of my favourite albums from mainstream music. I believe there is another well-known song with the same title, but in a quite different musical style!
