Have thoroughly enjoyed these blasts from the past, don't suppose you could add an Alitalia one just for old times sake. Chris

I have about 25 years of prints from 1980 on. Does anyone know the best way to digitalise them and maybe post some here?

I use a flat bed scanner then just refocus & any other thing as required to enhance them

Hi Guys,
Some great shots there guys, lump in the throat time for me when there are so many Northwest included, plus a B747 (NW) in the background of one shot!!! Fantastic...
Sadly, it makes you feel a little bit old when you’ve (what I really mean is, several of us) witnessed the birth, The full service and now the demise of such a classic airliner... I too had a friend on the ill fated Turkish Airlines DC-10 which crashed outside Paris, she had been scheduled to fly home on a BA service but because of the strike had got herself transferred onto it... Bless her....
Anyway, we should cherish the remaining KC-10’s while we can....
Cheers lads.
Bill

And the MD11s? Even if most are now in the cargo role.

My shots in this thread have all been scanned from the negatives with a bit of tidying up afterwards in photoshop. I find that the colours are more vibrant from the negative as opposed to scanning prints. I use the Plustek OpticFilm 8200i negative scanner. It also does slides. Denis.

Hi Denis, does your negative scanner have the facility to scan old 126 format negatives do you know? I have about a hundred from 40 odd years ago that I'd love to share on here but no one wants to print them for me and even when I did find a local shop who would do them, they want nearly £200.

I don't think I have any negatives as I pit all the prints in albums
