D-AHLL Hapag-Lloyd Boeing 727-081 seen from the top deck of Car Park 2 at London Heathrow on JAT flight JU211

The Boeing Collection
From a collection of some 500 Boeing slides that I've had scanned from my archives. Hope they will provide some enjoyment and nostalgia from a bygone age.

The view from Car Park 2
D-AHLL was one of Hapag-Lloyd's small fleet of second-hand short-bodied Boeing 727s, and made a rather exotic sight at my home airport of London Heathrow. The aircraft was taxiing for a 10L departure on JAT flight JU210/1., and was carrying small 'Leased by JAT' titles. Both D-AHLL and D-AHLM were leased to JAT for just four months in 1980, and this was probably the only opportunity to have seen this attractive livery in the UK?

D-AHLL c/n 18823 - Boeing 727-081 was delivered new to All Nippon Airways (ANA) as JA8305 in April 1965. The aircraft was sold to Hapag-Lloyd in April 1973 and registered as D-AHLL. The aircraft flew with the airline for eight years before passing on to SAHSA Honduras as HR-SHE in late 1981. Some ten years later, the aircraft was to be found stored at Fort Lauderdale - Hollywood, fate unknown.

Taken with a Soviet made Zenith E camera and 300mm telephoto lens. From an original slide, scanned and unrestored.
