66-0133 is taxiing in to the ramp after landing on runway 25.

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.)
