Miami feeling at Riem - HC-BQH on an Iberia Cargo flight (subcharter for Cargosur) in January 1991! This airframe had in fact been seen at Riem 22 years earlier as CF-TJR with Air Canada on 25 January 1969.
Cargosur and Aeronaves del Peru 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). (Thanks to Ramin Fischer and Chris Witt for this information.)
Information from flickr - thanks to Guido Allieri:
The aircraft was built for Air Canada in 1966, converted to Cargo operations in 1984 to be used by Arrow Air, then Quebecair as C-GQBG. In April 1987 was leased by AECA (Aeroservicios Ecuatorianos ) for 1 year, then leased again in September 1990 until September 1991. Would then be sold to MK Air Cargo in Africa (as 9G-MKB) and crash on approach to Kano, Nigeria, on February 15th, 1992 (no fatalities).

Bohnstedt-Petersen A/S
In the late 1980s, Bohnstedt-Petersen A/S used this ex-Royal Danish Air Force aircraft as a company plane, but also for pleasure flights at airshows. From the early 1990s, the C-47A was operated and maintainted by The Association for Flying Museums Planes/Danish Dakota Friends (DC-3 Vennerne).
In December 2019, the permanent grounding of the aircraft for technical and financial reasons was announced, but it then received a new engine and was kept in flying condition after all. So this is now (2021) the last airworthy DC-3/C-47 in Denmark.

I think the livery of the Alitalia or SAM Caravelle in the background dates this photo to 1970. G-ANBJ was noted at Riem on 27 March and 6 June 1970. It had also been noted on 19 January 1969 - along with three other Britannia Britannias on that day (G-ANBA, G-ANBF, G-ANBL). The airframe only had about a year of service left at the time this photo was taken.
Information from flickr - thanks to Ken Fielding:
Delivered new to BOAC British Overseas Airways Corporation in Nov-56 as G-ANBJ, it was wet-leased to Malayan Airlines from Feb/Mar-62 and again from Jun/Jul-62. It was stored at London-Heathrow in Nov-62 after just 6 years in service. It was leased to Britannia Airways (previously known as Euravia) in Apr-65 and they bought it in Jul-70. It was retired at Luton in Nov-70 and broken up there in Feb-71.

In December 1971, it was sold to Air Spain, who registered it as EC-BZQ. Aerovias Quisqueyana purchased the aircraft three years later, and registered it as N8605. This Dominican Republic carrier owned it until July 1978, when it was sold to American Jet Industries, who parted it out in Smyrna, Tenn.
Red Lane acquired what remained of the airliner, and moved it to Ashland City, Tenn., where it was converted into a home. Reportedly, he has lived in it for over 20 years and still lives in it today.

Information from flickr - thanks to heathrow junkie:
c/n 22024 - Boeing 737-2L9 was delivered new to Maersk Air as OY-APH in Dec 1976, but was only with the airline four years before being sold to Guiness Peat Aviation as EI-BII. The aircraft was immediately leased to Aerotour as F-GCGS, but only for a few months, before being leased to TAAG Angola as D2-TBU. A year later, the aircraft was with Bahamasair as C6-BEQ. In 1990, it returned to the USA as N737Q, and flew with airTran Airways and Sky King Inc. into the 21st century. The aircraft ended up with Aviation Technologies Inc. and was retired in the 2000s. The aircraft was scrapped at Merced, CA [which was formally Castle AFB] in 2010.

OY-APZ
Boeing 720-051B
18384 / 237
Maersk Air
OY-APZ visited Munich-Riem a few weeks after delivery to Maersk Air in the first colour scheme that was used by their Boeing 720's.
Strangely, it looks like the aircraft is parked on taxiway Foxtrott here. Possibly this was on 23 March 1973 when there were a lot of soccer charters due to the European Champions' Cup quarter finals at Munich. OY-APZ was noted at Riem on that day, and there’s also a DC-10 and a Martinair DC-8 visible behind, which would support that theory.

THY Türk Hava Yolları - Turkish Airlines
This Boeing was brand new with THY at the time this picture was taken. As N711PA with Pan American, it had opened the “Jet Age” with the first commercial flight of an American jet airliner on 26 October 1958 (see below for more information).
Information from airhistory.net - thanks to Stephan Barth:
HY Turkish Airlines operated 16 B-707's, two ex QANTAS and the rest ex Pan American. 1958-built TC-JBC was number 5 off the production line and the third oldest in the THY fleet; the airline bought it from Pan American and used it between 1974 until 1976. Broken-up at Taipei as N4593U in August 1984.
Detailed information from thisdayinaviation.com:
26 October 1958: Pan American World Airways opened the “Jet Age” with the first commercial flight of an American jet airliner. Pan Am’s Boeing 707-121 Clipper America, N711PA, departed New York Idlewild (IDL) on an 8 hour, 41 minute flight to Paris Le Bourget (LBG), with a fuel stop at Gander, Newfoundland (YQX). (The actual flight time was 7 hours.) The distance was 3,634 miles (5,848 kilometers). Aboard were 111 passengers and 11 crew members.
Boeing delivered N711PA to Pan American on 17 October 1958 (first flight 20 September 1958). The airliner was named Clipper America, but was later renamed Clipper Mayflower. It was leased to Avianca (Aerovías Nacionales de Colombia S.A.) from 1960 to 1962. In April 1965 the 707 was upgraded to the –121B standard. This included a change from the turbojet engines to quieter, more powerful and efficient Pratt and Whitney JT3D-1 turbofans, producing 17,000 pounds of thrust. The wings were modified to incorporate changes introduced with the Boeing 720, and a longer tailplane installed. Pan Ayer of Panama purchased Clipper Mayflower 21 February 1975. It was later leased to Türk Hava Yolları, the Turkish national airline, and went on to serve with Air Asia Company Limited (an Air America aircraft service unit) and E-Systems. After 26 years of service, in August 1984 Clipper America was scrapped at Taipei. Source: www.thisdayinaviation.com/tag/n711pa/

McDonnell Douglas MD-87 (DC-9-87)
49403 / 1404
Finnair
Reportedly, this aircraft - here only about one year old - would become the last MD-87 operating in Europe.
Information from airliners.net - thanks to J. Laporte (slightly adapted):
First flight 30 June 1987. With Finnair from November 1987 to 2000. Later EC-HMI with Spanair, SE-RBA with Nordic Leasure from 2005 and OY-JRU with Danish Air Transport from 2009. Plane stored at BLL November 2015. Flown to Iran for scrapping in June 2017.
Information from youtube - thanks to Airborne Cinematics:
This MD-87 is one of a kind... After having served Danish Air Transport for many years, it was to leave the fleet several times in 2013 and 2014. For 4 months it was stored at Stockholm Arlanda awaiting its destiny. In May 2014 it came back, and started flying charter flights from Billund. Eventually, on 26th June 2017, it was flown to Iran for scrapping and spare parts are now used on Iranian MD-80's.
The plane is the only jet in the world wearing these colors, and has been very popular among planespotters. OY-JRU has served as military transport for soldiers to/from Afghanistan, and as a charter plane for DAT (Danish Air Transport).

Information from flickr - thanks to heathrow junkie:
PH-ZBL c/n 11093 - Fokker F-28-6000 was one of only two series 6000s, developed by Fokker B.V. in the early 1970s with the longer fuselage of the Mk 2000/4000 but with an increased wingspan and leading edge slats. The type was certified in the Netherlands on 30 Oct 1975. (Converted back to a F-28-4000 later in 1977.)
The aircraft was leased to Linjeflyg in 1976, and then to Pars Air, Iran as EP-PBB in 1977. Returning to Fokker B.V. at the end of 1977,it was leased to NLM between Dec 1981 and Feb 1982. In 1983 the aircraft was finally sold to Air Mauritanie as 5T-CLG. The final identity was 5Y-JLA with JetLink Express (Kenya), but the airline ceased operations in 2012.
Still stored at NBO in July 2018 (and still visible on Google Maps in August 2021:

Information from flickr - thanks to heathrow junkie:
TS-IOE 'Zarzis' c/n 22624 - Boeing 737-2H3 was delivered new to Tunis Air on 27th Apr 1981 and flew with the airline for an impressive 20 years before transferring to Tuninter in May 2001. In 2002 it was leased to Sudan Airways and then, after a period of storage, went to Aerovista Gulf Express (UAE) as A6-AVE in 2006. In 2008 it was sold to Kaz Air Jet (Kazakhstan) as UP-B3704. In 2010 it passed to Shaheen Air International (Pakistan) as AP-BIZ. Withdrawn at some point after a varied and long career - fate unknown?
Apparently preserved at the MidEast Aviation Academy, Amman Marka Airport (ADJ / OJAM), Jordan, visible on Google Maps in August 2021:

Laker Airways
A very early DC-10 visitor to Riem, possibly the second one, seen only a few days after the first visit of the type on 23 December 1972 with THY's TC-JAV.
Laker DC-10s were among the first widebodies at Riem in the early 1970s along with those from THY, ONA, Swissair, KLM and TIA.
Information from airliners.net - thanks to Ian Gains:
G-AZZC was Laker Airways 1st DC-10, and the 1st DC-10 on the United Kingdom Civil Register. Built in 1972, she served with Laker for 10 years. In those years, DC-10-30's and A300's had joined their fleet, so she moved on to a plethora of carriers and home bases until the mid 1990's. She was eventually broken up at Marana, AZ in 1998.

A 1966-built One-Eleven with a surprisingly interesting history: Delivered new to American Airlines in June 1966 as N5032, it was only in service for 6 years and then sold to LANICA as AN-BHN in March 72 (after being leased to Merpati Nusantara Airlines in 1971). A year later, in March 73, it was sold to Out Island Airways as VP-BDI (merged into Bahamasair in July 73). Sold to British Airways in December 73 as G-BBMF and in service with them for 15 years. Eventually retired at Bournemouth-Hurn (BOH) in November 1988. Bought by Birmingham European in April 1990. Sold to Nigerian private airline Okada Air as 5N-EHI in August 1991. Wfu at Benin City in December 97. (Sources: Ken Fielding on flickr, planelogger.com, rzjets.net)

The first MD-11 performed its first flight on 10 January 1990, while Riem airport closed in May 1992 - so there was just a short time window to see that type at the airport.
Swissair initially ordered 12 MD-11, and deliveries began 1991. Four further new aircraft and four ex-LTU Aircraft were later added to the fleet bringing it to a total of 20 units (source: sr692.com).
HB-IWC was delivered new to Swissair on 30 March 1991 (first flight February 1991) and later taken over by SWISS. Converted to MD-11F in April 2004 and flying with Martinair Cargo as PH-MCY from September 2004. Wfu and stored at MHV in December 2015. (Sources: sr692.com, planelogger.com)

A very old and heavily modified KC-135 with a very interesting history at Riem (the starboard side would have looked even more interesting). The new charter terminal built in the late 1980s can be seen in the background on the left.
Information from joebaugher.com (slightly adapted):
3135 (MSN 17251), built as a KC-135A-BN Stratotanker, converted to JKC-135A, fitted with 50 small windows for nuclear readiness testing. In the 70's it was used in astrographic camera system trials, then converted to NKC-135A as instrumented tanker to provide data on new aircraft or systems (worked on the SR-71 LARSE program as the only KC-135 E-series to ever refuel a Blackbird), and then to NKC-135E. Re-engined in 1982. Retired Sept 2004, allegedly the second oldest aircraft then serving with USAF (49 years of use). To AMARC Sep 28, 2004 as CA0144. Still on AMARC inventory Jan 15, 2008. Departed Nov 8, 2018. (Additional information from Mark Allison on flickr)

Both I-SAVA and sister ship N716HH were noted at Riem on 5 July 1974. This was the entire Aeropa fleet on one day. Possibly, they both returned three days later, because the two other shots of them I have at Riem are dated 8 July 1974.
I don’t know if colour is peeling off on the tail or if this is a strange reflection (not there on any other picture I’ve found).

Information on I-SAVA from flickr - thanks to Guido Allieri:
I-SAVA (c/n 17664 l/n 17 series 131) was one of the first Boeing 707 delivered to TWA in May 1959. The plane was sold to IAI Israel in December 1971 and in September 1972 was leased to SAV/Aeropa. When Aeropa ceased operations the plane returned to IAI Israel to be scrapped a few year later in Tel Aviv.

HZ-AIF in its initial colours with bare metal belly. First flight 4 June 1981 and delivered to Saudia on 23 June 1981. In service until approx. 2013 and stored at JED from March 2014 (source: 747sp.com). Not sure about its present state: the Google Maps view of JED retrieved in July 2021 shows two 747SPs stored there, but these are probably HZ-HM1B and HZ-HM1C:

(West German Air Force, Executive Transport Wing)
This was the day of Bavarian Prime Minister Franz Josef Strauss’s funeral. A large portion of West German Air Force’s Executive Transport Wing was present, among many other Government aircraft from various countries. 17+02 is seen here with four Luftwaffe Canadair Challengers behind (I can make out 12+02, 12+04 and 12+05, the last one is not clear).
Information from flickr - thanks to Reinhard Zinabold:
c/n G18 - built in 1977 and used by the Luftwaffe until 1998 - now preserved Naval Aviation Museum Nordholz / Germany with registration D-AXDB.
The Luftwaffe was the longest user of this unique aircraft - they had 3 examples registered 17+01/02/03. This example has the claim to fame in that it brought the West German delegation, headed by Chancellor Helmut Kohl, to Berlin to sign the treaty for German unification on 31st August 1990.
After 17+02’s retirement from German Air Force in September 1998 there were plans to put the aircraft in airline service in Sweden, but nothing came to it in the end.
The aircraft was transferred to Nordholz/Germany by sea and land in 2003 and is now part of the German Navy Aviation Museum (Aeronauticum) at Nordholz.

Luftwaffe’s VIP B707s were occasionally seen at Riem. The inscription on 10+02's tail reads: Luftwaffe-Boeing 707 19998. This is still the initial colour scheme, but the engine cowls are now grey.
10+02 was delivered new to West German Air Force in 1968. Sold to USAF in 1999 as 68-11072, to be converted for the E-8C JSTARS programme (delivered in August 2002 as 99-0006). Still active in 2020.

Worldways Canada
This airframe had visited Riem before as G-ATZC with Caledonian/British Caledonian on 22 August 1972 and 16 April 1978.
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

This airframe had previously visited Riem as PH-DEC with KLM on 6 June 1977. N820TC was noted at Riem on 7 April 1990 operating a flight for LTU. The date on this slide says June 1990, so there were probably more flights in spring 1990.
Information from flickr - thanks to Ken Fielding:
Delivered new to KLM Royal Dutch Airlines as PH-DEC in Jul-68, it operated for 16 years until it was sold to a leasing company in Mar-84 and leased to Icelandair as TF-FLU. It returned to the lessor in Mar-89 as N820TC and was leased to Trans Continental Airlines two months later. It was returned to the lessor in Dec-90 and stored as N863E. It was converted to freight configuration in Apr-91 and leased to Southern World Airlines in Jul-91. They didn’t have it long and in Oct-91 it returned to the lessor and was leased to American International Airways (Kalitta!). It was re-registered N787AL in Aug-92 but returned to the lessor 2 months later and was immediately leased to ATI Air Transport International. It was re-registered N788AL in May-94 and continued in service with ATI. On return to the lessor in Feb-97 the aircraft was sold to Airborne Express and re-registered N828AX in Nov-97. Airborne Express were renamed ABX Air in Aug-03 and the aircraft continued in service until it was stored at Cincinnati (CVG), OH, USA in Dec-07 . It was sold in Jul-09 to Meridian Airways, Ghana, as 9G-AXC. Meridian Airways ceased operations in 2010.
Broken up at ACC in January 2015 (rzjets.net).

N357PA shortly before touch-down on runway 07 on a Thursday morning in winter 1978 with snow on the ground illuminating the plane’s underside. The aircraft was one of around 24 that were rotated between the United States and Germany for use on the Internal German Services (IGS). In the 1970s, Pan Am operated about six daily flights between Munich and West Berlin.
"From 1950 until 1990 Pan Am operated a comprehensive network of high-frequency, short-haul scheduled services between West Germany and West Berlin, first with Douglas DC-4s, then with DC-6Bs (from 1954) and Boeing 727s (from 1966)". (Source: wikipedia)

This originally was one of two Eastern Airlines Tristars shared with Air Canada from November to May and May to November respectively (between 1973 and 1981). First carrying a cross over color scheme where only titles and registrations changed, this one later received the full Air Canada colors and the other Eastern's. Air Canada took it over full time after May 1981. Sold to Air Transat January 1987 (and leased to EgyptAir during 1990), it was broken up at Mirabel 2002.

G-AMPO would visit Riem again with Intra Jersey on 2 October 1975.
Information from ruudleeuw.com (slightly expanded):
G-AMPO (cn16437/33185) went thru various hands before joining Air Atlantique. From the USAAF (44-76853) it went straight thru in 1945 to the RAF as KN566. G-AMPO was first designated in 1952. In rapid succession it was used by Starways LTD (1953), Eagle Aircraft Services (1954), First Air Trading (1954), back to Eagle Acft Svcs (1955) and Starways (1956), Aviation Overhauls (1963), British Westpoint Airlines (1964) and then it went abroad to Polaris Air Transport as LN-RTO (1964). But in 1969 it was reregistered G-AMPO for Field Aircraft Services. That same year it went to British Aircraft Corporation. During the early-1970s it was used by Macedonian Securities and Macedonian Aviation before it returned to Albion and was registered to McDonald Aviation (1975). Then there was Intra Airways in 1975 and Vistair Flight in 1978. Eastern Airways started operating it from 1978 and all this moving about came to an end when it was registered to Air Atlantique in 1981. It remained with Air Atlantique until de-registration in 2001 and was subsequently presented to 47 Air Despatch Sqn, Royal Logistics Corps, for display at the unit’s HQ at RAF Lyneham. G-AMPO was placed as a gateguard at RAF Lyneham in Sep01, repainted and marked 'FZ626'.

Information from smiliner:
Iranian airline Mahan Air has retired the 146th BAe 146 built. BAe 146-300 EP-MOK (msn E3146) was flown to Shahdad, near Kerman, on 7 December. After making a low pass, she landed on a gravel strip, with Captain Mokhtarabadi, Mahan Air’s Bae 146/Avro RJ fleet manager, at the controls. She is due to become a restaurant. EP-MOK was built at Hatfield in 1989, and was initially operated by Italian airline Sagittair as I-ATSC. She then passed to another short-lived Italian airline, TAS. After a brief period in storage, she joined Aer Lingus Commuter‘s fleet as EI-CLH in 1995. She stayed in Ireland until 2003, an initial 5-year lease being later extended. She then went on to Bulgarian airline Hemus Air and its successor Bulgaria Air as LZ-HBG. While with Hemus Air, she spent considerable time in Iran, on lease to Taban Air. Hemus Air replaced her Embraer E-Jets in 2012, and after a brief stop in Ukraine as UR-CKY she joined Mahan Air’s fleet in April 2013, eventually adopting the registration EP-MOK.

Originally a Napier Eland powered CL-66B delivered by Canadair to the RCAF September 20,1960 and was one of the last 10 Convair-Liners built. After support for the Eland was dropped, the Cosmopolitan was converted to 580 standard with Allison engines and re-delivered January 10, 1967.
109159 went on to fly in Panama as HP-1473 from December 2003. It was seen stored at Panama City (PTY) in November 2007 and flown from there to Kelowna, BC, in September 2012 (arrived 20 Sep 2012). (Sources: ruudleeuw.com, abpic.co.uk)

Former RCAF 109159 was one of five retired RCAF CC-109 aircraft parked on the Kelowna Flightcraft ramp in September 2014. Each aircraft had about 15,000 hours and, while the engines had been removed, they all appeared to be in good condition. I was told that they all had glass cockpits installed just prior to be retired by the RCAF. Due to the difficulty in getting them certified for civilian use and a limited market for CV580/CV5800 freighters, by August 2017, all but C-GLWF/109152 had been scrapped. (Ralph M. Pettersen on airhistory.net)

February 1974
XA-SID "Guanajuato"
McDonnell Douglas DC-8-51
45935 / 330
AeroMexico
XA-SID was scheduled to take the Mexican delegation to a Club of Rome meeting on North-South problems in February 1974 in Salzburg, Austria, but due to bad weather at SZG the flight was re-scheduled to Munich-Riem (much to the annoyance of the SZG spotters). The aircraft was probably parked for a few days at Riem, which explains the different weather in different shots showing it there in February 1974. (Thanks to Michael Bernhard for the information.)
Information from flickr (thanks to Ken Fielding):
This aircraft was delivered to Aeronaves de Mexico as XA-SID in Feb-68. Aeronaves de Mexico was renamed AeroMexico in Feb-72. It was withdrawn from service and stored at Mexico City in early 1989. It was sold to the GPA Group Ltd (later to become GECAS) in Jun-89 and sold the same day to Omega Air. In Jul-89 the aircraft was leased to Holidair Airways (Canada) as C-FFSB. Omega Air sold it to Aviant Leasing Corporation in Aug-89 as N508DC while the lease to Holidair continued until it was returned to Aviant in Oct-89 when it was withdrawn from service and stored at Calgary, AB, Canada and later at Waco, TX, USA. In Dec-92 the aircraft was sold to Agro Air International and moved to Miami, Fl, USA for further storage.

Cargosur
Cargosur and Aeronaves del Peru 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). (Thanks to Ramin Fischer and Chris Witt for this information.)

TC-91
Boeing 707-387C
21070/897
Fuerza Aérea Argentina (Argentine Air Force)
I have two reports of TC-91 at Riem: on 21 December 1978 and on 3 April 1979. On 3 November 1977, TC-91 also visited Neubiberg Air Base (MIG / EDPN) approx. 8 km from Munich-Riem.
Information from airliners.net - thanks to Robert Domandl (slightly adapted):
First flight 4 February 1975. Delivered new to the Argentine AF in June 1975 as T-01, this 707 (originally a -387B, the last 300B model built) was intended (and used) as presidential aircraft, but later in 1977 she was fitted with a large cargo door and therefore re-registered TC-91.
During the Falklands War she was used as a long distance reconnaissance aircraft, being intercepted on 21Apr1982 by Sea Harrier XZ460 over the South Atlantic. Ironically, only 6 weeks before, on 10Mar1982 TC-91 visited Stansted (STN) to pick up a military cargo, which probably ended up being used against Britain.
The aircraft occasionally operated for LADE (Líneas Aéreas del Estado), flying passenger services. Wfu at El Palomar Airport (EPA/SADP) since 2006.
Spottingmode.com reports that all aircraft stored at El Palomar were removed (info updated in April 2021). Google Maps in fact shows only one B707 on the site when viewed in June 2021.

Tarom (Transporturile Aeriene Române)
YR-ABA at the holding point for runway 07, only a little more than a year old at that time (it had been delivered in February 1974). Tarom used a variety of aircraft for their charter flights to Munich, interesting for their mixture of Western and Soviet types including BAC 1-11, Il-18, Tu-154, B707 and Il-62. During summer 1978 there was a regular Il-18 flight every Monday. An-24/26 were rarely seen.

A Fairchild from 1960. Her service life started as a Canadian corporate aircraft, and the last operator flew her on passenger services from Oaxaca, Mexico, until 1993. Seen there as late as 2009, the aircraft has been probably broken up meanwhile.
Actually, two F-27s are still visible at Oaxaca airport on Google Maps in June 2021, one of them reportedly N311RD:

Swissair
Swissair Coronados were occasionally seen at Riem in the early 1970s, substituting for the usual DC-9s. HB-ICD, the aircraft lost in an in-flight bomb explosion near Zurich on 21 February 1970, was noted at Riem only a month before that, on 21 January 1970. HB-ICF was sold to MBB in April 1975 and scrapped at XFW in October of that year.
Information from airhistory.net - thanks to Stephan Barth:
The Coronado was one of the fastest airliners ever, and Swissair bought eight of them for delivery in 1961 and 1962. One of those was lost after a bomb explosion near Zurich, the rest of the fleet was withdrawn in 1974. Two were scrapped (including HB-ICF), four were sold to Spantax, and one was transferred to the Verkehrshaus at Luzern, where it has been displayed ever since.

Note: The registration PH-DCI was later used for BAe Jetstream 3201 c/n 916 flying for AIS Airlines (still active in 2019).
Parked next to another KLM DC-8 (with white top) and a KLM DC-10. Possibly these flights were also in connection with the European Champions' Cup quarter finals between Ajax Amsterdam and FC Bayern on 21 March 1973 (though I have no report on PH-DCI on or around that day). The DC-3 seen in the background is N569R, more or less based at Riem for a while during the early 1970s.
Information from airliners.net - thanks to Richard Vandervord:
After her first 14 years spent with KLM as "Sir Isaac Newton" (delivered in 1961), this DC-8 was sold to Viasa in 1975. Although bought by Aeronaves del Peru in 1984, she remained in store at Opa Locka as was broken up next year.

TS-JHQ, a frequent Riem visitor, in the later Tunisair colours and less than a year before the airport’s closure.
Information from flickr - thanks to heathrow junkie:
TS-JHQ 'Tozeur-Nefta' c/n 20948 Boeing 727-2H3 was delivered new to Tunis Air in Nov 1974, and flew with the airline for an impressive 25 years. In 1999 the aircraft returned to the USA with Kalitta Equipment as N722SK and converted to a pure freighter. In 2004, the aircraft transferred to Kalitta Charters II. The aircraft flew well into the 21st century, still flying up to around 2017, and when retired, ended up at Wurtsmith Air Force Base, Michigan.

Originally delivered to Philippine Airlines in 1962 but immediately stored in Las Vegas, and later that year leased to KLM as PH-DCR. After flying for Philippine as PI-C804 from 1967, the aircraft returned to KLM in 1972 for a 3 year lease as PI-C804 and later RP-C804. Again flying with Phillipine Airlines from 1975, the airliner was finally used by African Air Charter as 9Q-CQM until 1987, when it was broken up at Kinshasa.

PH-DCA in basic BIAS/Pomair colours with Martinair titles was noted at Riem on 28 April 1975, propably the date this photo was taken (the slide says May 1975). This DC-8 also visited Riem as OO-AMI with BIAS (1972) and later as N904CL with Capitol Airways (1976-78).
PH-DCA was part of KLM's fleet since March 1960 and used by KLM until March 1972. After a two-year intermezzo with the Belgian companies BIAS, Delta International and Pomair Ostend, the aircraft flew for Martinair Holland from November 1974 to December 1975 before joining Capitol Air and later Overseas National Airways in the USA as N904CL. (Source: bsl-mlh-planes.net) Broken up May 1981 at FLL.

Madrid runway disaster
On 7 Dec 1983, a Boeing 727 of Iberia (Spain's state airline) registered EC-CFJ, operating IB350, a scheduled flight to Rome's Leonardo da Vinci–Fiumicino Airport, was cleared for take-off from Madrid-Barajas Airport's Runway 01 in conditions of thick fog. At the same time, a DC-9 of Aviaco registered EC-CGS, operating AO134, was taxiing to the end of the same runway for take-off bound for Santander Airport. As the Boeing 727 rolled along the runway, the crew of the DC-9 accidentally made a wrong turn in the fog and taxied their aircraft onto the runway, into the path of the 727. The crew of the 727 saw the DC-9 and attempted to avoid the collision by rotating their aircraft for lift-off, however the 727 had not reached flying speed and its rear fuselage struck the DC-9. Both aircraft caught fire and were destroyed; all 42 people on board the DC-9 were killed, while 51 (50 passengers, one crew member) of the 93 on board the Boeing 727 were killed.

INA - Yugoslav National Oil Corporation
Information on YU-BME’s time with Croatia Airlines:
Manufactured in 1974 under the serial 256048, this machine was another veteran of Yugoslavia’s aeronautical shopping trips. First serving as HB-VDS with Vaduz, Lichtenstein-based Fayair, in 1979 it would return back home to the UK as G-BHIE of Dismore Business Aircraft, before finally making it to Yugoslavia in April 1980. Becoming YU-BME, it would then end up with INA Industrija nafte (Croatia’s only oil company) before being passed on to Zagal (later: Croatia Airlines) in early 1990. Later operated by O’Gara Aviation Company as N6567G. A short stint with Ganntt Aviation would follow in July of 1992, before it would make its way back to European lands as TC-COS of Turkey’s Uray Technik. There it would stay until 2001, when it would hop to the States once more, becoming N852GA of General Aviation Services. Its final operator change would come in December of 2005, when it would pass into possession of Arnoni Aviation. Stripped of useful parts in September 2009, it would be struck off the FAA registry in August of 2013, with its carcass interred to this day at the scrapyard of the famous Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Phoenix, Arizona (still carrying some of the Croatian-language placards from its Yugoslav service days)

Singer
Stephan Barth’s notes:
During the Olympic games at Munich, the military airbase of Neubiberg was opened for civil visiting aircraft, as Munich-Riem couldn't handle the large amount of traffic. G-AYRR with Singer titles was one of those visitors, being just one year old. About 30 years later, the service life of this bizjet ended in Zaire, last known as 9Q-CPR with Shabair.
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.)

Bavaria Fluggesellschaft
Shortly after delivery, Bavaria proudly displays their first BAC 111 version -500. Two sisterships (D-ALFA and D-ANUE) would follow, and in 1976 a fourth aircraft (G-AXMG, leased from Court Line) completed Bavaria‘s version -500 fleet. D-AMUC here was sold to Argentina in 1980 and flew with Austral as LY-OAY until 1994 (broken up in May 1994). The aircraft was never painted in full Hapag-Lloyd colours following the merger of Bavarian Germanair with that operator.
Bavaria Fluggesellschaft was based at Munich-Riem, so these aircraft were very commonly seen here. All Bavaria aircraft wore 'vanity registrations‘. The One-Elevens were D-AILY, D-AISY, D-ALFA, D-ALLI, D-AMUC, D-ANDY, D-ANNO and D-ANUE.
Here’s a photo of five Bavaria One-Elevens in a row at Riem in July 1972 (D-AILY in front):

HZ-HM1 c/n 21081 l/n 903 - Boeing 707-368C was a late-build 707 [production of the passenger 707 ended in 1978], delivered new to the Saudi Royal Flight as HZ-HM1 in Sep 1975, and was the flagship aircraft until replaced in July 1979 with a Boeing 747SP-68, when it was demoted to HZ-HM2. As with many Saudi aircraft, the aircraft flew for many years, only being withdrawn in 2003 - 28 years with one operator! The plane survives preserved at the Saudi Royal Flight/Royal Saudi Air Force Museum at Riyadh.
