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.
Information from flickr - thanks to Paul:
New to Tarom as YR-ABA in 1974 (leased to a variety of carriers over the years). To First International Airlines as S2-ADU in 2004 then to Mid Express Tchad as TT-DAX in 2008. Withdrawn from use at N'Djamena, Tchad by 2011

Seen here in an all-white scheme, this Fairchild F-27 actually had a quite colourful history (the list of operators below is only a selection).
Information from airliners.net - thanks to Stephan Barth:
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:

HB-ICF "Schaffhausen"
Convair 990A Coronado (30A-6)
30-10-6
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 One of those was lost after a bomb explosion near Zurich, the rest of the fleet was withdrawn in 1974.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.

This is one of the few DC-8's preserved in a museum! Recently seen at Detroit-Willow Run MI (in March 2021). Austrian Airlines used the DC-8 for about one year only - obviously no economic success in the Austrian fleet. (Source: Stephan Barth on airhistory.net)

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.

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.

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):

The 1972 Olympic Summer Games in Munich brought a lot of airlines and airliners to Riem airport that were otherwise never seen there, including this Qantas 707 parked in front of the Lufthansa maintenance hangar hier. Another Qantas B707, VH-EBS, visited Riem about a month earlier, on 6 August 1972.
Information from flickr - thanks to heathrow junkie:
c/n 19627 Boeing 707-338C was delivered new to Qantas as VH-EAG in May 1968. The aircraft flew with Qantas for 11 years before being sold to the RAAF as A20-627 in 1979, named Windsor Town. The aircraft was eventually converted to a tanker, and was withdrawn for spares in 2001. Broken up at RAAF Richmond in November 2009.
The cockpit section was not scrapped and has been donated to Historical Aircraft Restoration Society (HARS), Wollongong, N.S.W. for display at the HARS Aviation Museum.

This One-Eleven was a regular at Riem, initially with Germanair, then Bavaria Germany and finally Hapag-Lloyd as seen here.
Information from cordobavuela.blogspot:
First flight 9 December 69. Originally built for Paninternational, but not taken up. BAC kept it for sale and used it as a demonstrator as G-AXVO. Converted to model 1-11-524FF in 1970. Acquired by Germanair on 20 March 1970 (D-AMOR). Germanair merged with Bavaria in March 1977, and Bavaria Germanair merged with Hapag-Lloyd in January 1979. Austral bought the aircraft in November 1979. It was the only Austral aircraft that landed in the Malvinas during the Falkland conflict (1982), that's why it was named "Puerto Argentino". Stored at Morón Air Base from September 1993 and used for fire practices/as a ground trainer.
Information from airhistory.net - thanks to Paul Seymour:
Used as a ground trainer by Centro de Instrucción de Aeronavegantes y Técnicos Aeronáuticos (Air Force Training Centre for Aeronautical and Aeronautical Technicians) at Buenos Aires Morón (MOR). Previously with Austral and retired there in 1993. Ex G-AXVO, D-AMOR and LV-PFR. Still there in 2016.

Classic Air
The aircraft was brand new with Classic Air at that time.
Information from airhistory.net - thanks to Paul Seymour:
Delivered to the USAAF as 42-24133 in 1943. To NC65266 in 1947, NC6K in 1948, N6K after 1948, N88Y in 1965, N88YA in 1974 and G-BMCR then back to N88YA 1985. To Classic Air as HB-ISC in 1986 then to Verein der Freunde der Swissair in 2001 and to N431HM in 2010.
Detailed information from flyinglegends.com:
DC-3 mark/tail number 42-24133 was built at Douglas Aircraft Company, Long Beach CA, USA, on 04/08/1943. It performed its first flight as a military transporter C-47A-45DL. 1945 it was sold to a Finance company, a year later to an Engineering company. At this time it was re-registered NC65266 and 2 panorama windows were installed. New registration mark/tail number NC6K in 1948.
In the following decades there were several owner changes within USA, however the aircraft stayed privately operated.
On 17 July 1982 the aircraft arrived in the UK and served as „movie star“and air show attraction. Sold to Air Atlantic it was parked at Coventry, Blackpool and Exeter and served as a spare part donor.
1986 the aircraft was bought by Classic Air, ferried to Switzerland and totally overhauled. With its new registration mark/tail number HB-ISC it took its first commercial flight in February 1987. From 2004-2006 it was operated on a commercial basis by Ju-Air (Switzerland). Since 2007 the aircraft is privately owned by Mr. Hugo Mathys, a Swiss owner of a medical company. 2010 it was transferred to Basler Turbo Conversions, Oshkosh WI USA and again totally overhauled including the removal of the panorama windows. Since its return to Switzerland it acts as the leading aircraft of the Classic Formation displaying at airshows across Europe.

G-AZJH with Hawker Siddely Aviation was also noted at Riem on 26 July 1973.
Information from airhistory.net - thanks to Stephan Barth:
The semi-camouflage colours suggest that G-AZJH was on a demo tour to an air force when it came through Munich for a fuel stop. However, when finally delivered to the Nepalese Royal flight as 9N-RAC in 1975, it had civil colours with a red cheatline again. - Since SEP/20 the airframe has been displayed as NA-020 in a museum at Kathmandu, Nepal.

Atlas Aircraft Corporation, ex-Yugoslav Air Force
Work in progress on "TN-ADS", the former N8071X and Yugoslav Air Force 71241.
This plane has a long and interesting history.
C-47A N8071X, the later TN-ADS, (c/n 12704) 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-47B N8071Y (cn 14101/25546) and C-53D N8071Z (cn 11746).
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.
C-47A MSN 12704 was manufactured in 1944 and served with USAAF (42-92857), Soviet AF, Polish AF (4), LOT (SP-LCB), in Denmark as OY-AIC, with French AF (92857 and F-BRGM), Yugoslav AF (71241), Obrazovni Centar Zracnog Saobracaja (OCZS) at Zagreb, Yugoslavia (YU-ABU). Sold to Atlas Aircraft Corporation on 5 November 1979 and registered N8071X. Stored at Munich, Germany, for months. Received "temporary" registration TN-ADS in September 1981 for delivery to SAAF (6887 (2)). Converted to C-47TP (turbine engines). Still active in December 2017.

The cockpit of Lufthansa‘s first Boeing 747-430, D-ABVA „Berlin“, parked in Lufthansa’s maintenance hangar at Riem - with the rear windows of the hangar visible through the cockpit windows.
This was the first 747-400 delivered to Lufthansa (on 23 May 1989) and also the first to be removed from their fleet after 15274 cycles with a total time of 112358 hours in December 2011 (last commercial passenger flight was on 31 December 2011). Ferried to TUP on 24 January 2012 and broken up there in 2013. (Sources: rzjets.net, jetphotos.com)
Interesting anecdote: On 28 October 1991, seven months before Munich‘s new "Franz Josef Strauss Airport" (MUC II) was opened, D-ABVA was the first LH jumbo to land at that airport that was still a construction site. The background was a logistical one: The First Class and Business Class of the Lufthansa jumbo fleet were to be converted, and there was not enough spatial capacity for this at the major hangars FRA and HAM. At "MUC II", however, a huge hangar was ready and not (yet) used. (Source: Info0902.pdf, Gemeinschaft ehemaliger Lufthanseaten: gelh-rvmuc.de/Images/Info0902.pdf - includes a photo of the landing)

Private Jet Services
This airframe had visited Riem before as D-ADAP with Air Commerz and as TC-JBN with THY Turkish Airlines, and it was seen several times as N790FA: on 7 and 8 December 1979 with Jet Aviation, from 3 to 5 July 1980 with Private Jet Services, and on 4 February 1981 with Private Jet Services.
This was the first Boeing 707 delivered to Qantas (as VH-EBB) and the first Boeing 707 to land at Honolulu and Brisbane. There’s lots of information to be found on this airframe due to its significance for Australian aviation.

Schlumberger NV
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. PJ-SLB, operated by the French company Ste. Schlumberger, was one of those visitors. The airframe remained on the PJ register from 1971 to 1973. 18 years later, in 1990, the airframe was seen as G-TACE at Southhampton in derelict condition (broken up there ca. 1991).
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.)

Lockheed C-141B Starlifter (L-300)
300-6285
United States Air Force
VIP Starlifter parked out in Riem’s "Westpilz" parking area.
Starlifters were rarely seen at Riem, I only have three reports for the 1970s:
65-0271 (5 July 1974),
66-0132 (3 July 1975), photo 1 at Riem, photo 2 at Riem
65-9405 (7 July 1975) - this aircraft was lost in a mid-air collision with German Air Force Tu-154 11+02 on 13 September 1997 approximately 80 NM off the coast of Namibia.
67-0166 was 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.

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.

LIAT had leased VP-LAJ from its parent company Court Line for a few months, and immediately afterwards the aircraft would fly for the French airline Rousseau Aviation, keeping the beautiful pink colours and the registration; seen here at Munich-Riem as a visitor for the Olympic Games. After this lease, the 1966-built aircraft was active as G-ATMJ until 2006.
Information from flickr - thanks to Paul:

D-ABAK in its final Aero Lloyd colours parked out in Riem’s "Westpilz" parking area. This airframe had previously visited Riem as EC-BIF with Aviaco and as D-ABAK in all the different variants of the Aero Lloyd colour scheme (see in the comments below).
This Caravelle was initially delivered to Iberia as EC-BIF in September 1967 and went on to Aviaco in May 1972. It flew with Aero Lloyd as D-ABAK from 1980 to 1991, and then was sold to Aero Sucre Colombia as HK-3676X (source: planelogger.com). From there she went on to Transapel as HK-3869X and a drug smuggling career with Aerogolfo, being seized by the Mexicans in 1994 and landing up with the Mexican AF as 10507 (stored at Santa Lucia AB) (source: Richard Vandervord, airliners.net). It was not broken up as reported but survived at Parque Aviacuatico los Manantiales, San Juan Tuxtepec, Mexico, at least until 2017 together with Caravelle c/n 211.

ca. April 1981
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.

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.

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.)

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.

Douglas DC-6B

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):

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)

D-ABAK seconds before touch-down on runway 25. This airframe had previously visited Riem as EC-BIF with Aviaco (see in the comments below).
This Caravelle was initially delivered to Iberia as EC-BIF in September 1967 and went on to Aviaco in May 1972. It flew with Aero Lloyd as D-ABAK from 1980 to 1991, and then was sold to Aero Sucre Colombia as HK-3676X (source: planelogger.com). From there she went on to Transapel as HK-3869X and a drug smuggling career with Aerogolfo, being seized by the Mexicans in 1994 and landing up with the Mexican AF as 10507 (stored at Santa Lucia AB) (source: Richard Vandervord, airliners.net). It was not broken up as reported but survived at Parque Aviacuatico los Manantiales, San Juan Tuxtepec, Mexico, at least until 2017 together with Caravelle c/n 211.

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)

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.

Classic Riem shot with this TAE One-Eleven parked in front of the tower which still had a "Parkposition" indicator next to the crow’s nest. In front of the hangar in the background on the right, Aero-Dienst’s Potez 841 D-CAER can be made out, a Riem resident:

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):

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):
