Not strictly correct, as BMI hadn't been invented yet. Hands up all that remember this ? ( it takes me all my time to do so! )

It was the one and only I ever saw.It must have been a lease.

They wet-leased for a number of years to third-world airlines, then operated IT flights to the Med. and Canada in the early 'eighties. I worked for Midland at that time.

Thanks for that info - I think this was the only one I saw, let alone pointed a camera at.

I feel old when I come across spotters who have not seen a B707!
They used to be as common as B737s are now.
Thanks for the memory.

When I was a small boy our family home was less than 1mile from EMA and when these aeroplanes took off, it was possible to see the glass windows vibrate with deviation of approx 3-4mm causing a loud rattling from the window itself.

Thanks for the memory.
