Friends share a flight of fancy
IN these days of grumbling about budget flight companies and ever-increasing security checks, it's strange to remember that quite recently, a trip on a plane promised excitement and glamour.
In fact, it was a trip out just to go along to the airport and take a look at the planes and the travellers.
These young ladies look to be in their Sunday best as they wait at the fence at what was then known as Renfrew Aiport (now Glasgow Airport) back in the summer of 1963.
From left to right they are Janice Mulholland, 5, Josephine Dempster, 6, and Marie McCann, 10 , all from Glasgow and their friend June Keltie, aged 11, who was from Toronto. Perhaps she was anticipating that soon she'd be boarding a plane for the journey home.
