| ![]() Over a sixteen year period, 1955-1971, Indian Airlines Corp.(IAC) had a fleet of sixteen Vickers Viscount quad-turboprop airliners. These were
The early livery had a navy blue stripe running along the windows with the Indian flag on the white tail fin. The later livery had the top half of the fuselage (including the line of windows) in white , a black nose and a full orange tailfin with the IA logo in white on it. Does anybody have scans of old photos (monochrome/color)? Would you please share? |

BHPian ![]() | ![]() Some really awesome shots there in the last few weeks. A bit of deviation from the current subjects.. ![]() A Magpie Robin who sits on the fence each day and sings like he's in love, all day long. All this - on my site. ![]() |

A well balanced long exposure, esp. the pink tint of light on the trees and the twilight sky. | |

![]() The Viscount in the picture: VT-DIX, is a 1958 V.768D model (from the second batch of V.768Ds). The pic is in the earlier livery, when Indian Airlines was called Indian Airlines Corporation (IAC) and had the Wings logo seen on the sides of the nose. She was lost while attempting to land in strong wind on a wet runway at Jaipur-Sanganer Airport on 9th August 1971. The pilot made multiple unsuccessful attempts and on his 3rd attempt, the Viscount touched down 1,800 feet down the wet runway, overran the paved runway and was damaged beyond repair. All 23 passengers and 4 crew survived. | |

BHPian ![]() | ![]() @clevermax Guess you got the answer from torqy ![]() I had been to Bodega bay, about an hour away from San Jose. The place was a wildlife reserve too. I was lucky to get this shy deer so close to me, they are so elusive that, once they see you closer than usual they just gallop away! ![]() Regards, TG.
