Saludos,

Regarding non-payment of your photos published in 1985 !

You have about as much chance of getting paid for your work as you have of seeing a sour faced Michael O'Leary when he is banking his cheque for his Aeroplane M......y articles.

Just join the queue of ripped contributors.

I am just one of thousands.

No doubt a celebration party will take place when his day comes.

To put the record straight, it's the last flying CIVIL Connie in the world. All others in the L749/1049 series are retired military.

Note that the L1649's are also civil but very itinerant flier/s.

The engines are repairable, too.

G'day :wink:

The Airline History Museum's website seems to be very optimistic about getting the damages repaired and flying the Connie again in the future. check www.airlinehistorymuseum.com
