EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Dornier 228-201 SX-BHF (msn 8057) as it gracefully approaches Athens International Airport around the turn of the millennium. The Dornier 228-201 is a versatile short-takeoff and landing (STOL) aircraft, renowned for its ability to operate from unpaved runways and short strips. This particular aircraft, registered to Olympic Airlines, was a key component of the Greek carrier's fleet during that era. The Dornier 228-201 is a twin-engine turboprop aircraft, capable of seating up to 19 passengers. Its distinctive design, featuring a T-tail and high-mounted wings, is a testament to the innovative engineering of the Dornier company. The aircraft's versatility made it a popular choice for various applications, including passenger transport, cargo operations, and even maritime patrol duties. As SX-BHF glides towards Athens International Airport, the vibrant colors of the aircraft's livery stand out against the backdrop of the clear blue sky. The airport, a major transportation hub in Europe, bustles with activity as other aircraft come and go, making for an intriguing contrast to the serene moment captured in this photograph. This image, from The Tony Lovelock Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique glimpse into the world of aviation history, showcasing the Dornier 228-201 in its element as it prepares to touch down at Athens International Airport. The photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of aviation and the beauty of the machines that make air travel possible.
