67-0021 is taxiing in to the ramp after landing on runway 25. Built in 1967, this Starlifter was still brand new at the time this photo was taken.

Starting from mid-January, the first half of 1968 saw a lot of US military traffic and charters at Riem in conjunction with the withdrawal/relocation of US troops from Germany. Sometimes there were two or three Starlifters on the same day. The civil charters included World B707s, ONA DC-8s, Capitol DC-8s, Modern CV-990s and TWA B707s. As of April, Braniff B707s, Capitol DC-8s, Eastern DC-8s, Trans Caribbean DC-8s and Braniff B707s were noted on these flights. (Information from Klaus Held's Riem chronicle.)
