Wow! Beautiful classic footage of yesteryear and the magic of flight. Watching the dress of passengers exiting the aircraft indicated the class of people lucky enough to fly.

I live in hellinikon! My hme is built next to the runway! Despite the noise, I miss the old airport, I miss olympic's old livery, I miss olympic and I miss the old times of Athens!

I remember me climbing up the roof flour and browsing the airplanes!

I 'd be very happy if this airport were in function again...!
