Old Adelaide

Post by Footy Chick »

Bennymacca asked for it.

Ask and ye shall receive.

Feel free to reminisce about Adelaide before it was filled with big ugly glass buildings and cheesegraters ;)

There's a photo on Facebook that often floats about, it's a plane flying low over Kings Road at Parafield Airport from the 50's, it always gets me thinking until I stop thinking.

I've seen that picture, it's heading east, those hills are para hills (which wasn't there)

The scary thing is, is that the planes still come in really low, we saw one miss the top of a truck by mere inches once.

Up, up and away, with TAA, the friendly friendly way!
