You didnt happen to take the aicraft's rego did you? Some of the AOM fleet were ex Air NZ DC-10s, which is where I'm from.

I am Portuguese & The Son of A Portuguese TAP AirCraft Instrumentation Mechanic.The Boeing DC-10 is One the Oldest 1960s Era Passenger Jet Airliner! It is Ultimately Amazing how this Boeing DC-10 of The Early 1960s is NOT in a Literal AirCraft MUSEUM! I don't even have Any words to Explain how such An Extremely Old DC-10 is still Operationally Flying,or Certified to Fly with ANY Safety After almost 5 Solid Long DECADES of DC-10 Boeing Ancient History!! WE ARE IN THE AGE OF AIRBUSES,BOEINGS NEW!!

@Pullisto Hi, I just did some research into this to find out what the reg was. I looked at AOM's DC10 fleet in service in 1994 and found 9 planes. Of those, I found two that match. After looking at the history of one, it turns out to be an ex-ANZ* bird, however the other is not. But in the video, the reg appears under the windows (from what I can see), and the one I found is above it. However I have found one that looks like the one in the video, but is not ex-ANZ. They are *F-GNDC and F-ODLZ.

so wings. so ridgid. less bending than what you see in today's planes.

I appreciated this airline between cities like Toulouse, Marseilles, Nice Côte d'Azur, Toulon and Paris.

And even between Paris and French Caraibean islands.
