Lockheed C-141B Starlifter (L-300)
300-6285
United States Air Force
VIP Starlifter parked out in Riem’s "Westpilz" parking area.
Operated by the 443rd MAW and used as a VIP transport by the Commander, Headquarters Air Mobility Command (note the gold MAC tail band and fuselage stripe). A plush VIP interior is installed, with the aircraft wearing white top & gray bottom colors. The VIP interior could be removed if needed for a cargo mission. Later, the aircraft was assigned to a standard airlift role and flew heavily in the Gulf War II conflict carrying wounded troops to immediate care in Germany and back home to the US for longer term care. It was last based at Wright-Patterson.
This was the very last of 285 C-141 Starlifters built by Lockheed Aircraft Corporation (initially constructed as a C-141A and converted to first to a C-141B and then to a C-141C), and it flew the last line mission by the type, on 7 April 2006, from Wright-Patterson AFB to Scott AFB. Preserved as a representative of the 445th Airlift Wing at Scott AFB located in Belleville, Illinois.

Detailed information from flickr - thanks to Ken Fielding:
This was the 4th aircraft on the line and first flew in May-59 as G-APRN. After taking part in the prototype test programme it was delivered to BEA British European Airways in Nov-61. It was only with BEA for 4 years. In the meantime, Armstrong-Whitworth Aircraft was absorbed by the Hawker Siddeley Aviation Group and the aircraft was sold back to them in May-65. It was stored for 3 years until it was sold to Universal Airlines as N897U in Nov-68 and sold on 2 months later to Nittler Air Transport. In Sep-71 it returned to Hawker Siddeley as G-APRN and was sold to Saggitair Ltd., however it was repossessed by Hawker Siddeley in Sep-72 and sold to Field Aircraft Services Ltd., in Feb-73. Field's sold it to ABC Air Bridge Carriers in Jun-73. It was leased to the British Aircraft Corporation in Nov-75, returning to ABC in Jan-76. The aircraft was damaged beyond repair when the right main undercarriage leg collapsed on landing at Belfast, Northern Ireland, UK, on 17-Apr-82. It was broken up at Belfast later in 1982.

G-ASIX 'Loch Maree'
Vickers VC10 Srs1103
820
Caledonian/BUA
G-ASIX with the short-lived Caledonian/BUA titles which were applied just after the merger. Noted again at Riem on 6 February 1972 with British Caledonian Airways. This aircraft would later become quite a regular visitor to Munich-Riem as A4O-AB with Oman Royal Flight.
Information from flickr - thanks to heathrow junkie:
c/n 820 - Vickers VC-10-1103 - delivered new to British United Airways in October 1964 as G-ASIX. BUA merged with Caledonian in 1970 to form British Caledonian Airways, and the aircraft flew with Caledonian until the VC-10 fleet was replaced with Boeing 707s in 1974. The aircraft was sold to the Omani Government for VIP conversion for the Sultan's Royal Flight. The aircraft flew in this role registered A4O-AB from 1975 until retirement in 1987. As the Sultan apparently was keen to see the aircraft preserved, a deal was struck with the Brooklands Museum in which the VC10 would return to its birthplace and remain there as a tribute to all the VC-10s that were built at the site. The aircraft was flown in from Heathrow on 6th July 1987.

G-BFLD
Boeing 707-338C
19625 / 693
British Midland Airways (basic Linhas Aéreas de Moçambique [LAM] colours)
G-BFLD in basic LAM colours was reported at Riem on 12 April 1981, probably the day this undated slide was taken. The bare metal Condor B737 in the background is probably D-ABFT - reportedly based at Riem and brand new at the time, it had only been delivered on 19 March 1981 and first visited Riem on 5 April 1981. Also in the background, a LTU TriStar can be seen taxiing to runway 25.
Information from flickr - thanks to heathrow junkie:
G-BFLD c/n 19625 [line no. 693] Boeing 707-338C - was a late build 707, delivered new to Qantas as VH-EBE in Apr 1968, and flew with the airline for 10 years until being superseded by Boeing 747 'Jumbo Jets'. The aircraft was sold to British Midland airways (BMA) in Mar 1978, who used the aircraft alongside a number of other second-hand 707s for sub-leases. The aircraft was leased to the following airlines for the next four years until it returned to the parent fleet in 1982: Kuwait Airways, Air Algérie, Gulf Air, DETA Linhas Aereas Mozambique, LAM Linhas Aereas Mocambique and [as seen here] Zambia Airways - quite an exotic list! The aircraft operated for BMA from 1982 to 1986, and then returned to the USA as N862BX and flew for Burlington Air Express and Buffalo Airways in the mid-1980s, before being sold again in Apr 1994 to ADC Airlines (Nigeria) as 5N-BBD. In the late 1990s, the aircraft ended up stored at Kent International airport (RAF Manston) and was finally broken up there around 2000.

Togo Government (Force Aérienne Togolaise)
Two Togo Government jets, this Fokker F-28 and Gulfstream II 5V-TAC, arrived at Riem in the middle of a very busy September Saturday - there’s a ONA DC-8, World DC-8, Capitol DC-8, Pan B707, THY B707 in the background. Nonetheless, the manager on duty in the ‚Verkehrsabteilung‘ (‚Traffic Department‘) kindly drove us out to the Westpilz parking area to let us take photos of the two state visitors in the last rays of sun under the threatening rain clouds building up.
5V-MAB left on 19 September, but returned three days later, on 21 September, and then stayed till 24 September. 5V-TAC stayed the full week from 19 to 24 September.
Togo Government aircraft seen at Riem during the early 1980s include Boeing 720 5V-TAD in February 1982, DC-8 5V-TAF in 1985 and B707 5V-TAG in October 1988.
First flight 20 March 1974 as PH-EXB and later re-registered PH-ZBK. This Fokker F-28 was delivered to Togo Government (Force Aérienne Togolaise) as 5V-TAB in April 1974 and re-registered 5V-MAB in July 1975, 5V-TAI in April 1992. Active well into the 2010s - the most recent picture I found is from August 2017.

Togo Government (Force Aérienne Togolaise)
Two Togo Government jets, this Fokker F-28 and Gulfstream II 5V-TAC, arrived at Riem in the middle of a very busy September Saturday - there’s a ONA DC-8, World DC-8, Capitol DC-8, Pan B707, THY B707 in the background. Nonetheless, the manager on duty in the ‚Verkehrsabteilung‘ (‚Traffic Department‘) kindly drove us out to the Westpilz parking area to let us take photos of the two state visitors in the last rays of sun under the threatening rain clouds building up.
5V-MAB left on 19 September, but returned three days later, on 21 September, and then stayed till 24 September. 5V-TAC stayed the full week from 19 to 24 September.
Togo Government aircraft seen at Riem during the early 1980s include Boeing 720 5V-TAD in February 1982, DC-8 5V-TAF in 1985 and B707 5V-TAG in October 1988.
First flight 20 March 1974 as PH-EXB and later re-registered PH-ZBK. This Fokker F-28 was delivered to Togo Government (Force Aérienne Togolaise) as 5V-TAB in April 1974 and re-registered 5V-MAB in July 1975, 5V-TAI in April 1992. Active well into the 2010s - the most recent picture I found is from August 2017.

Stephan Barth’s notes:
After being used as a company demonstrator by HSA (later BAE), G-BDJE was operated by McAlpine in this new colour scheme. Almost 20 years later, the Hawker was seen wfu at Southhampton, last reg was G-BKBH.
Built in 1975. As G-BDJE on the British register from 1975-1982, first as a demonstrator for Hawker Siddeley (later British Aerospace) and later for McAlpine. After a few operators in Gabon and Nigeria, the aircraft returned to the UK in 1997 as G-BKBH. Seen in poor condition at Southampton as early as 1999, used as a fire trainer in 2002; probably quickly scrapped after that.

Classic Riem shot with this G-AWKJ parked in front of the tower which still had a "Parkposition" indicator next to the crow’s nest. The nose of a Court Line One-Eleven is peeking in on the right.
Channel Airways operated three BAC 1-11s; they visited Munich on a few ski-charters only. This airliner was finally active with Okada Air of Nigeria, and when the airline suspended operations in 2002, all of their BAC 1-11s were wfu at Benin City; this one was 5N-AYV.

www.flickr.com/photos/161645265@N08/50044972922
Stephan Barth’s notes:
During the Olympic Games at Munich, the military air base of Neubiberg was opened for civil visiting aircraft, as Munich-Riem couldn't handle the large amount of traffic. LN-NPA was one of those visitors, and one of three HS 125's that were operated by Busy Bee of Norway. This airframe, finally registered as 5N-AAN, was dismantled at Biggin Hill in 2003. The nose section survived and was painted in RAF colours.
In the distance under the Hawker’s tail, there’s a Let 200 Morava (looks like Riem resident D-GGDC) and a Noratlas, among other military aircraft:
www.flickr.com/photos/161645265@N08/49778624047
Neubiberg Air Base was a United States Air Force airfield and German Air Force air base closed in 1991. Due to its closeness to Munich-Riem, there were the occasional mistaken approaches (I witnessed a Congo Brazzaville Air Force An-24 heading for Neubiberg once). The area has been turned into a recreation area interesting for birding, among other things. (See links at the end of this page for more information.)

HeavyLift Cargo Airlines
Very rare visitor to Riem, taxiing to runway 07 for take-off. According to my notes, three of the ten Belfasts built visited Riem: SH1816 (G-BEPE) on 3 June 1980, SH1822 (G-BEPS) in March/April 1990 and May 1992 as well as SH1819 (G-HLFT) in May 1990.
First flight as G-52-13 with Short Brothers Plc on 21 February 1966. In service as XR368 Theseus with 53 Squadron, RAF, at Brize Norton. In 1976, 53 Sqn was disbanded and Theseus was sold to Euro-Latin Commercial Ltd (PANAF) as G-BEPS. Re-registered to Transmeridian Air Cargo and then to HeavyLift in 1978. Broken up at Southend in October 2008 after plans to put it back in service alongside sister-ship RP-C8020 (ex G-HLFT) down-under fell through.

GBM 112
Douglas DC-6B
45564 / 1040
Zambia Air Force
A very special photo for me - I saw this aircraft depart from Riem that day from home but didn’t know what it was, I was only able to see the letters "GBM". Later I learned that it was a Zambia Air Force DC-6 - but only now I’ve seen a photo of it for the first time. Many thanks to Michael Bernhard!
Interestingly, GBM 112 had visited Riem before on 18 March 1975, and even earlier, on 8 June 1969, as YU-AFB with the Government of Yugoslavia. GBM 112’s sister ship, GBM 110, was also seen at Riem once, on 23 September 1975 (that one would become Red Bull’s OE-LDM).
Information from scramble.nl:
This airframe has an interesting history; as the last DC-6 built, it was delivered to Yugoslav Airlines JAT as YU-AFB in 1958 and in 1966 passed on to the Yugoslav Air Force as 7452, later reregistered as 73102. As such it was the presidential aircraft of President Tito. In 1970 it was shortly used by Adria Aviopromet as YU-AFB again, but then returned to the Yugoslav Air Force.
In 1975 the DC-6B was donated to Zambia, where it flew as GMB 112, the presidential aircraft of President Kaunda. In 1992 the propliner was sold to Namibia Commercial Aviation and registered as V5-NCG.
Its sister ship c/n 45563/1034, the second-to-the-last built DC-6B, is the one that was sold to Red Bull. It now flies as OE-LDM (still current in 2021).
V5-NCG has been stored in Namibia since 2010 but now there are plans to bring it back to the US (September 2020):

The slide was undated, but XV109 was reported at Riem on 19 February 1980.
XV109 is lined up on runway 07 for take-off - I’d like to hear the sound of those Conways now ... RAF VC10s were rare at Riem, there are only a few reports for the 1970s and early 1980s, but 1980 saw three of them shortly ofter one another: XV103 on 19 January 1980, XV109 on 19 February 1980, and XV807 on 19 April 1980. XV108 was seen twice in 1979, on 15 May and 4 October 1979
First flight 18 July 1968, delivered to RAF on 1 August 1968 as the last of the original fourteen RAF VC10s. Last landing on 6 April 2010 at Bruntingthorpe. Remains scrapped in June 2010, but cockpit section moved to St. Athan in January 2019. (Source: vc10.net)

Air France
F-BLKF is coming in to land on runway 07 on what looks like a late summer or early autumn morning, probably on the daily AF730 flight from Paris.
This airframe (first flight 29 December 1960) was once used as the Caravelle VII prototype equipped with General Electric CJ805-23C aft-fan engines as fitted to the Convair 990 and registered N420GE. It was intended as a prototype for the longer Caravelle 10A for TWA, which was to be license-built by Douglas, but Douglas decided to develop its own DC-9 and TWA went with it instead. As F-BJAO, the GE-equipped aircraft also completed a sales tour of the Asia/Pacific region for Sud Aviation. The Caravelle VII never entered production and was converted back to series III in June 1963. From then on, it served as F-BLKF with Air France until being wfu in November 1980. It flew on for a while as TL-FCA and later TL-KAB with the Government of Central African Republic. (Sources: airliners.net forum, airhistory.net, scramble.nl)

Before its time with Cal Air, G-BJZD had also been seen at Riem with British Caledonian Charter/BCA charter. Here it is seen lined up for take-off on runway 25 on what looks like an early spring day (the slide was undated).
Information from flickr - thanks to heathrow junkie (slightly adapted):
c/n 46970 - McDonnell Douglas DC-10-10 was delivered new to Laker Airways as G-GFAL 'Northern Belle' in February 1979, supplementing the original fleet of four DC-10s that the airline operated in the 1970s. When the airline ceased operations in 1982, the aircraft went to British Caledonian as G-BJZD, then British Caledonian Charter, BCA Charter, Cal Air and Novair. Sold back to the USA in 1995 as N581LF, the aircraft was then converted to a MD-10-10(F) freighter for Federal Express and re-registered N10060. The aircraft was wfu on 24 January 2021 after 42 years of service and stored at VCV from 25 January 2021.

EC-BQF was delivered to TAE in March 1969 but only stayed with the airline for less than a year. It was leased to Munich’s Bavaria Fluggesellschaft as G-AYHM from August 1970 to January 1971 after their One-Eleven D-ANDY had been significantly damaged in a take-off incident at GRO on 19 July 1970. Finally operated by Tarom as YR-BCH from August 1972 and scrapped in the 1990s. (Source: planelogger.com)

Spantax
Only 37 CV-990s were manufactured, and Spantax made sure that we would regularly see this rare type at Riem in the 1970s and into the 1980s.
The "Coronados" were notorious for their huge black exhaust plumes as illustrated by this photo (from DUS in 1974):
www.dusinfo.net/sp/large/5095.jpg
I think the engines were later modified and no longer emitted such black exhaust smoke.
Here, EC-BJD is seen shortly before touch-down on runway 07 on a May Wednesday in 1979. A lot of traffic was reported that day at Riem, most of it on the occasion of the 1979 European Cup Final at Munich’s Olympic Stadium where Nottingham Forest of England defeated Malmö FF of Sweden 1–0 to become European champions for the first time in club history (thanks to Ramin for this information):

As 3C-QRF, the aircraft was apparently used to smuggle arms according to a July, 2004 UN Security Council report on arms sanctions in the DR Congo. Not just that, it was the venue for a mysterious council-of-war between the Congolese vice-president Jean-Pierre Bemba and supposedly Libyan emissaries. (Source: harrowell.org.uk)

Mike Romeo is taxiing out from the stands for take-off - she would have to turn left at this point for runway 25 or right for runway 07.
First flight 28 January 1968. Delivered to BEA in May 1970 and merged into British Airways in April 1974. Transferred to European Aviation June 1993. A sale of G-AVMR to Okada Air of Nigeria was intended, but the deal fell through. So the aircraft was stored at Bristol-Filton, later at Bournemouth, and was not used again for commercial service. It was scrapped in 2001. (Sources: planelogger.com, AirHistory.net)

There’s a London-Heathrow ATC legend connected with this aircraft:
"Former Heathrow air traffic controller Alan Carter related how he and his colleagues were determined to look after BA’s G-AVMR, a One-Eleven delivered to its predecessor British European Airways in 1970, after they had temporarily ‘mislaid’ the aircraft during a particularly busy period in the Heathrow tower. As a result, they determined – totally unofficially - that this particular One-Eleven would have their undivided attention from then on. ‘How we looked after Mike Romeo,’ Alan said. When ‘A’ Watch was on duty the aircraft never had to wait in a holding pattern when landing at LHR and on one occasion was treated to a stand normally reserved for BA long-haul flights."

Information from flickr - thanks to Ken Fielding:
Originally ordered for Kuwait Airways as 9K-ACI, the order was cancelled and the aircraft was delivered to the Kuwait Finance Company in Jun-66 as G-ATPJ and leased to British Eagle International Airlines. It was wet leased to KLM Royal Dutch Airlines in full KLM livery in Mar-68 and returned to British Eagle in Aug-68. British Eagle ceased trading in Nov-68 and the aircraft was returned to the Kuwait Finance Company and stored. It was sold to Dan-Air London in Mar-70 and they operated it for 20 years before selling it to ILFC (International Lease Finance Corporation) in Jan-90 and leasing it back until the end of the summer season in Oct-90. ILFC then leased it to LADECO, Chile, the following month as CC-CYF. They operated it for a further 4 years until Nov-94 when it was retired and returned to ILFC. It was broken up at Santiago, Chile in 1995.

Built in 1977, this Learjet has remained on the German register for 45 years and is the longest-serving German bizjet, still flying for Bauhaus from Mannheim in November 2020. Even DLR’s Falcon 20 D-CMET is one year younger. At the time of this photo, D-CCHB was alternatingly used by Bauhaus and Duscholux, hence the sticker.

Information from Jacques Hémet who bought the plane in ca. 1975:
"This C-53 had been converted to an executive configuration by Remmert Werner (features such as a retractable tail gear, A 12 Sperry autopilot - hydraulic actuated door/stair - airline Collins Radio etc...). An 12-autopilot was the main reason of my purchase, because the use of the plane for geophysical survey (very low time airframe too)."
„Kurfiss used that plane (not the only one, I presume) to make inflight porno movies, which were for sale at the Frankfurt terminal sex shop!“

N8071Y
Douglas C-47B-1-DK
14101/25546
Atlas Aircraft Corporation, ex-Yugoslav Air Force
C-47B N8071Y (cn 14101/25546) - the later TN-ADT - was one of three ex-Yugoslav Air Force Dakotas that arrived at Riem around December 1979 and stayed there till spring/summer 1981.
The other two were C-47A N8071X (c/n 12704) (cn 14101/25546) and C-53D N8071Z (cn 11746).
Here all three of them are seen parked in the "Ostpilz" parking area in April 1981: N8071Y in the foreground, N8071Z in the middle (already painted as 9Q-CYI), while N8071X can just be made out in the distance under N8071Z.
This is the only photo I have where the former N8071Z is seen wearing the registration 9Q-CYI (it must have left Riem only a little while after this shot).
C-47B N8071Y (cn 14101/25546) has a long and interesting history which took it from the US to France, Africa (Congo, Tunisia, Algeria, Madagascar), Yugoslavia, South Africa and finally Colombia. Apparently it’s still active – noted at MDE/SKRG in December 2019!
N8071X and N8071Y were repainted with a white top and grey belly, while N8071Z only received the white top and kept the Yugoslav Air Force camouflage below (photo as such with SAAF as 6875 (2) exists).
N8071X and N8071Y left Riem in September 1981 with fake registrations TN-ADS and TN-ADT, respectively. N8071Z already left in April 1981 with registration 9Q-CYI, apparently also fake. All three went to the SAAF, busting the sanctions in force at the time.
www.joebaugher.com/usaf_serials/1943_2.html has a very detailed entry on this airframe under "48285".

Aeronaves del Peru and Cargosur freighters appeared at Riem fairly frequently as part of a longer-term, but irregular series of cargo flights from ca. 1990 to 1992, sometimes in collaboration with Iberia. IB Cargo didn’t have any dedicated freighters at that time and leased what was needed on a seasonal basis. AECA Carga’s DC-8 HC-BQH also turned up on such a flight (5 January 1991), as well as several Boeing 707 freighters: Aeronaves del Peru OB-1400, SkyAir Cargo EL-JNS (26 October 1991), Southern Air Transport N528SJ (30 April 1992), Florida West Air N720FW (2 April 1992).

A special JetStar as it once served as Air Force One for President Lyndon Johnson and the First Family, here seen assigned to the 435th Tactical Airlift Wing at Ramstein, Germany.
Information from flickr - thanks to Lockheed Martin:
The final Lockheed C-140B JetStar executive transport built for the U.S. Air Force. The aircraft (Air Force serial number 62-4201) was sent to the 1254th Air Transport Wing at Andrews AFB, Maryland, where it remained until January 1966, when it was moved across the ramp to the 89th Military Airlift (Special Air Mission) Wing. This aircraft was assigned to President Lyndon Johnson and was used extensively by the First Family. In June 1972, this aircraft was redesignated as a VC-140B, and in 1977 was shipped to Ramstein AB, Germany, to serve with the 435th Tactical Airlift Wing. After second stints at both Andrews and Ramstein, this JetStar returned to the U.S. in October 1987 and was assigned to the 375th Aeromedical Airlift Wing and the 1467th Facilities Checking Squadron at Scott AFB, Illinois. After a crack developed in the left wing spar, the JetStar was retired in January 1989 and stored at Davis-Monthan AFB, Arizona. In January 1992, the Hill Aerospace Museum at Hill AFB, Utah, acquired this JetStar for static display.

Spantax
Only 37 CV-990s were manufactured, and Spantax made sure that we would regularly see this rare type at Riem in the 1970s and into the 1980s. EC-BTE had only been delivered to Spantax in March 1970 and was still fairly new with the carrier when this photo was taken. The livery with a broad white stripe under the blue cheatline slightly differs from the later Spantax standard colours, and the aircraft is still lacking the red Spantax logo on the nose.
Delivered new to American Airlines in March 1962 as N5609 (a registration later used for Boeing 727-51 c/n 18806/188 from 1978). Went on to Modern Air Transport as N5609 in February 1967 (leased to Nordair from 1968 to 1969) and finally to Spantax as EC-BTE in March 1970. Wfu at PMI in October 1981 and b/u in 1991.

Information from flickr - thanks to Kerry Taylor:
Delivered to Delta as N3304L on 18Sep65. To Spantax as EC-CGZ on 23Feb74. To Emerald Air as N932EA on 11Feb84. Merged into Braniff on 15Jun91. Stored at Opa Locka Oct91. To Air Margarita as YV-830C on 30Jan93. To Allegro Airlines as XA-SNR on 17Mar94. It crashed on landing in Tampico Mexico on 14May96 and was written off. No fatalities.
Additional information from flickr - thanks to Sentinel28a1:
N3304L was an early DC-9-10 version, and as Delta's passenger numbers soared in the mid-1960s, the "Short 9" was not big enough for the airline's needs. The Series 10s were sold off to Southern Airways in favor of longer versions, and N3304L joined her sisters in Southern's livery in 1973. It was not with Southern for long before it departed for the sunny Mediterranean and Spantax in 1974. It remained with Spantax for a decade, then was bounced between several airlines--Emerald Air, the briefly relaunched Braniff, Air Margarita, and finally Allegro Airlines of Mexico. Now registered as XA-SNR, it was badly damaged in an emergency landing at Tampico in 1994, enough to be written off and scrapped. Delta learned of the fate of N3304L/XA-SNR, however, and was able to save the tail of this iconic aircraft for eventual display at the Delta Flight Museum.

Information from airliners.net - thanks to Ian Gains:
Built in 1962, this Coronado served with SAS and Swissair until 1975 when she joined several of this type at Spantax. They provided inclusive tour flights until well into the 1980's - this example was parked in 1983, and eventually broken up in 1994. The Coronado was a sight to behold, pumping black smoke out of her 4 screaming jets - once seen, never forgotten.

Boeing 707-138(B)
17696 / 29
Pacific Western Airlines (PWA)
A legendary aircraft at Riem - the first of seven Boeing 707-138s ordered new by Qantas, and the 3rd Boeing airliner delivered new to Qantas. Nowadays preserved as VH-XBA at the Qantas Founders Outback Museum, Longreach, where it arrived on its last flight from Sydney on 10 June 2007. It had been flown from Southend to Sydney from 8 December 2006 to 16 December 2006 with stops at DUB, TFS, BDA, MCO, LAX, HNL and NAN.
Information from flickr - thanks to heathrow junkie:
c/n 17696 (l/n 29) Boeing 707-138B - the first 707 for Qantas, delivered as VH-EBA in Jul 1959. The aircraft flew with Qantas until 1967, and was then sold to Pacific Western Airlines as CF-PWV, later C-FPWV. Some eleven years later, the aircraft was sold again as N138TA to Tigerair, and in 1984 to Airnark Corporation as N220AM. Re-registered as N138MJ in 1986, the aircraft was sold again as HZ-123 to the Royal Embassy of Saudi Arabia. The aircraft was stored at Southend in 1999, and was eventually restored as VH-XBA with the Qantas Foundation Memorial Museum, arriving back in Australia on 10th June, 2007.

Note: OO-SDF (1) was DC-6B c/n 43827 / 337 delivered to Sabena in March 1953.
Sabena B737s were a pretty new sight at Riem in 1976 - Caravelles were still in operation (the last report I have of a Sabena Caravelle from Riem is from December 1977.)
First flight 9 July 1974, delivered to Sabena on 19 July 1974 and flying for the carrier till 21 October 1999. Went on to European Aircharter (EAL) as G-CEAE 26 years later, in January 2000 until the complany ceased operations in November 2008 (leased to Air Sicilia during summer 2001). Stored at MHV (parts still there in March 2019). (Sources: rzjets.net, skystef.be)

Here’s something special: My sister and I in front of SU-ALE on 10 or 11 February 1970 following the crash on 9 February, picture taken by my father.
SU-ALE had been delivered to United Arab Airlines in December 1960. It crashed ten years later at Riem.
Due to buffeting, the takeoff had to be rejected at a height of 30 feet. The aircraft landed back, overran the runway, struck through a fence and only came to halt a short distance before the first houses. The undercarriage was torn off and a small fire started, but was quickly extinguished. All 23 occupants were evacuated safely, but the aircraft was damaged beyond repair and must have been scrapped at Riem (I’ve never seen any reports on that). (Details taken from aviation-safety.net and baaa-acro.com.)

D-ICAY, Lear24D-254, built in 1972. From 08/72 to 1977 in service for the Schickedanz family (founders of catalog retailer Quelle Versand). The next owner Triumph-Adler had the aircraft re-registered as D-CCAT (2) following an increase in the permissible total weight. Sold to Brazil via the US in 1981, the last known registration was PT-LCV. Not seen after 1994 and probably b/u.

PH-CHB came to Riem that day to pick up injured Dutch skiers from Austria together with Martinair DC-9 PH-MAX. The aircraft had been delivered only about four months before in December 1978 and had visited Riem before on 7 and 14 January 1979. It’s wearing a partly torn off Martinair sticker here.
Information from flickr - thanks to heathrow junkie:
PH-CHB 'Birmingham' c/n 11138 - Fokker F-28-4000 - one of four F-28 Fellowships delivered new to NLM City Hopper in 1979. The aircraft flew with NLM until the airline merged with KLM in 1990, and continued with KLM until 1996. The aircraft was then leased to Ostrava Air as OK-IEL, but soon sold to Merpati Nusantara as PK-MSW, before ending up sold to Air Mauritanie as 5T-CLH in 1999. By the mid 2000s the aircraft was withdrawn from use.

This Tupolev was delivered to Balkan Bulgarian Airlines in April 1974 and went on to Hemus Air in 1991. Wfu at SOF in 2001, but some parts apparently remained near a lake at Ravno-Pole until at least 2012. (Source: scramble.nl)

Skyline Sweden
SE-FOX was noted at Riem on 2 November 1976. She only flew with Skyline Sweden from September 1975 to October 1977. This is the only report I have of SE-FOX at Riem (sister ship SE-FOY visited more often in 1976, 1977 and 1978). However, this Viscount was previously D-ANAD with Lufthansa and will have made regular appearances at the airport as such between 1959 and 1971.
Information from airliners.net - thanks to Richard Vandervord:
This Viscount began her European career with Lufhansa as D-ANAD in 1.59 and joined BMA as G-BAPD in 2.72. Skyline bought her in 9.75 but she returned to BMA in 10.77. By 9.78 she was wfu at EMA, being broken up in 1.79.
One outer wing was later fitted to Viscount G-AZLT (C/N 349) during a major overhaul following a landing accident. (Source: vickersviscount.net) G-AZLT was then re-registered as G-BMAT, and G-BMAT was photographed at Riem with British Midland Airways in the early 1980s.

PH-TVA
Boeing 707-123(B)
17646/52
Transavia Holland
The first report I have of PH-TVA at Riem is from 24 February 1973. She was then frequently seen at Riem during the following winter seasons until 1981 (last report I have is from 10 January 1981).
The daily Pan Am B747 to JFK can be seen in the background in its usual parking position during that period. The Convair T-29B is N98085, parked at Riem from 10 November 1977 to 21 May 1978.
Information from flickr - thanks to heathrow junkie:
PH-TVA c/n 17646 - Boeing 707-123B was delivered new to American Airlines as N7519A in Aug 1959 and was named '519 Kentucky'. The aircraft flew for American for 12 years until sold to Transavia Holland as PH-TVA in Mar 1972. The aircraft spent 10 years with Transavia. Like many Transavia aircraft, PH-TVA spent a lot of the time leased out to other airlines, including RAM Royal Air Maroc, Saudia and American Overseas. In 1982, the aircraft was sold to Guy America Airways as N519GA to be broken up for for KC-135 parts at Davis Monthan Air Force Base.

This airframe had visited Riem before as G-ATZC with Caledonian on 22 August 1972 and would be seen here as C-GFLG with Worldways Canada in November 1983.
Detailed information from flick - thanks Ken Fielding:
Originally ordered by British Eagle International Airlines as G-ATZC, the order was cancelled and Boeing leased it to Airlift International in Apr-67 as N737AL, Airlift International bought it in Jun-68. In Apr-70 it was leased to Transavia Holland as PH-TRW. However, they only operated it for 2 months and it was returned to Airlift International in Jun-70. The following month, Jul-70, they sold it to Caledonian Airways. At the end of Nov-70 BUA British United Airways merged into Caledonian Airways which was renamed Caledonian//BUA (the titles hadn't been amended on this aircraft when the photo was taken in Jan-71). The 'BUA' was dropped in Sep-71 and the company became British Caledonian Airways. It was wet-leased to Biman Bangladesh for a Haj Pilgrimage operation between Nov-75 and Jan-76. The aircraft continued in service with B.Cal until it was sold to Worldways Canada in Nov-81 as C-GFLG. It was sold to Boeing in Feb-86 and immediately leased to Transbrasil as PT-TCP. Transbrasil bought it in Feb-89 and it was leased to AeroBrasil Cargo in Jan-91. It was damaged beyond repair in an accident at Manaus, Brazil, on 26-Nov-92

Regular KLM flights sometimes brought aircraft in VIASA and Philippine Airlines colours to Riem, like PH-DTG on this occasion. PH-DTG was also seen at Riem the day before (15 April 1978), but otherwise I have no report of PH-DTG (or YV-134C) at Munich's old airport.
PH-DTG apparently was delivered in VIASA colours and never wore KLM colours (source: EHAM historical movements thread on the scramble messageboard).
Information from flickr - thanks to heathrow junkie:
c/n 46556 - McDonnell Douglas DC-10-30 was delivered new to KLM as PH-DTG in April 1974, leased to Viasa Venezuela in 1977, and then sold to the airline in 1978 and re-registered as YV-134C. The aircraft flew with the airline for 20 years before being sold to Iberia as EC-GTB. Just two years later, in 2000, the aircraft flew back to the USA into storage, finally being broken up at Miami - Opa Locka in 2006.

München-Riem
October 1975
N1032F
McDonnell Douglas DC-10-30CF
46826/109
Overseas National Airways (ONA)
N1032F was noted at Riem on 13 September 1975 and the year before, on 27 September 1974. ONA‘s DC-10s were among the first widebodies at Riem in the early 1970s along with those from THY, Swissair, KLM, Laker, and TIA.
First flight on 6 June 1974 and delivered to ONA on 26 September 1973. The aircraft was destroyed by fire at JFK after an aborted take-off due to birdstrike on 12 November 1975, only about two months after this photo was taken. There were no fatalities.
Further information from heathrow junkie:
The ONA DC10s seemed to be jinxed, as four were written off either with the airline, or when sold to other airlines:
N1031F w/o with Saudia in 1975
N1032F w/o with ONA in 1975
N1033F w/o with Korean Airlines as HL7339 in 1983
N1034F w/o with Spantax as EC-DEG in 1982
