Living in a nearby village, In the early 60's I visited LSZH (ZRH) Airport nearly every Wednesday afternoon. Then, after my first apprentice as a Chef, I went to work for Swissair and yes, I flew all of does Aircrafts as a passenger. I was privileged to fly the DC 8 series as Cockpit Crew around the globe in several different functions and duties. It was a great time. Thank you for uploading these fine memories.

Yes Swissair SR was great but now gone. Beautiful colour film super 8 photography. SR had super service on DC10-30ER and A310-200 aircraft international and staff January 1986 miss it. What a loss of a great airline! Same with Ansett well the same now gone. Ansett 727.
flew Swissair as a 6 year old Manila to Tokyo , I believe it was a DC8 . Unforgettable experience since the stewardess brought me to the galley area and asked me to choose a toy . Flying was so much friendlier then.
Lovely assortment of classic airplanes! This is the Kloten I remember when I was a little boy. And, yes, I flew on those DC-8s and a CV880. Thank you for the memories!
I still can't believe that Swissair is no more. So sad. My father worked for SR in Kloten, my uncle in NY and my sister was a flight attendant for 4 years. Even I worked for a couple of summers in Kloten.
Wow this brings back memories from my childhood, this was when flying was still for the few. People still dressed up in their best when travelling. A trip from Scandinavia to Manila took ten stops, one of them here at Kloten.
as kids every two years we would fly from zurich to NYC on TWA and/or Swissair (then onto OH for a summer month's stay with the grandparents). wonderful memories. My kid blanket is still jammed somewhere between row 12 & 13 seats, I believe. I want it back
@kleinjogg and hear Coronado's engines....I still remember the smell of the cabine and the noise of the latest plane around 11pm flying above my parents house. Air France DC4 with post mail...
Great documentation ! Just now we have a good discussion about the rare planes, seen in your clip on our Flightforum switzerland ILS (Interessengemeinschaft Luftfahrt Schweiz).
That's a good question. It must be just after taking-off from ZHR, but it seems that we are flying quite low. I made a mistake sorry, I don't know where the plane was flying after Basel (HB-ICT). We spent a few hours in Basle (Zoo). The machine in the later afternoon did fly to Rome from Basel via Geneva (HB-ICS). I've forgot the camera in the plane and got it back on the next day :-) The fly from Zürich to Basle was supposed to be operated by DC-9-14, but we've got the Caravelle. Date: Early September 1967. Unknown day.
alessandro554vor 3 Jahren bellissimo video, enorme il contenuto storico. bravo! a 10 secondi dall'inizio e al 4 minuto di quali aerei si tratta? Nel 1º 10 secondi e Lufthansa Convair CV440 e a 4 minuti il Tupolev124 Aeroflot
Douglas, Boeing, Vickers, Sud Aviation, Fokkers, Convair, de Havilland.. Well now, when you're going to an airport, there are only Boeing and Airbus.. 😅 #with a bit of Bombardier, Embraer, or ATR eventually 😁
