Hi guys,
I have been searching for the thread that contained several photos of an Air India 777 on a stopover in Cairns some time back. I was wondering if anyone could direct me to these photos ?
I was fortunate enough to meet the Captain of that flight last Thursday in Mumbai, and he would be interested in seeing the photographs.
Thank you very much
David

Hi David

Was unable to find any thread or photo's on the Board or Jetspotter, but I did find this.

For what it is worth, photos on this forum generally have different life spans.

For example I saw a spotting thread from a few years ago on here and the photos were posted there for around 3 years as I saw it a few months ago. Looked at it the other day and now the photos no longer appear, some last longer some last less time.

So keep in mind you may find the original thread but the photos possibly may no longer appear in the thread. Sometimes when this happens you can find the photos still were they were originally uploaded.

Had a great chat with him, filled me in on his flying history - started off many years ago as an F/A with Lufthanza, wanted more out of life and eventually got accepted into their flying school. Also gave me a heads up on who not to fly with in (or out of)India with. Very interesting indeed !
