I recently dug up some old home videos I shot on my VHS-C camera back in 1993. It was definitely another era - many things are now no more, e.g. Ansett Australia, EastWest Airlines, Compass Airlines. Some things - like Qantas 747-400s, persist today. Hope everyone enjoys

  • awesome video, do u know for how long Air France flew to Australia?

  • Honestly I don't, but I know they used to operate CGD/SIN/SYD/NOU.

  • Gee I love this vid, I just keep watching it over and over! oh and btw, great music choice, gotta love the screaming jets ;)

  • Thanks! It was such a surprise to find the videos intact after such a long time in storage. Indeed a different era! Glad you enjoyed.

  • Brilliant ! Do you have any more ? PLEASE UPLOAD THEM !

  • Unfortunately no! I wish though! I found these and was surprised the tapes were relatively intact - I had to use a PAL/NTSC converter to change the format to US standard. It's like a window on a different time!

  • This is brilliant! I started with TAA/Australian and the footage of our old SYD terminal (round windows!) and our 734's taxiing in is great - brings back good memories. Rare footage of QF 744 in CDG too! I was fortunate to operate one of those flights. Thank you!

  • Fantastic video! Really interesting to see how much the landscape has changed at Sydney Airport in the last 17 years! Really enjoyed this and you chose a perfect soundtrack :)
