EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Douglas DC-8-62CF HS-TGQ (60110) of the Royal Thai Air Force taxis at London Heathrow Airport, circa May 1987. The Douglas DC-8, a legendary four-engine jet airliner, first took to the skies in 1958 and quickly became a favorite among airlines for its impressive range and capacity. This particular DC-8-62CF, with the manufacturing serial number 46129 and line number 523, was delivered to the Royal Thai Air Force in 1963. The Royal Thai Air Force used this aircraft for various purposes, including VIP transport and cargo operations. In this image, we see the DC-8-62CF adorned with the Royal Thai Air Force colors and insignia, exuding an air of authority and prestige. The aircraft's distinctive Douglas livery, with its bold red and white stripes, contrasts beautifully with the gray skies and lush green grass of Heathrow Airport. The DC-8-62CF was a versatile and reliable workhorse for the Royal Thai Air Force, serving them for several decades. This photograph captures a moment in time when this iconic aircraft was still a common sight at international airports, before the advent of more modern aircraft types. Today, the Douglas DC-8 remains a cherished part of aviation history, and this photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the elegance and power of this legendary aircraft in action.
