N8766 (cn 46015) I am throwing this pic out to all Opshots viewers, hoping somebody captured this plane with much better camera equipment then I had at the time! Photographed when the Concorde came to CLE in 1985, this aircraft was parked over by the brown "Hopkins" hangar. A cool subject, but deserving of better documentation then I can provide.

I'm pretty sure we still use that ground power truck...

Very nice.. I remember Airlift being here quite often back then, mostly in their standard gray scheme.

Chuck- awesome work as always-thanks. Still hope somebody got a clearer shot of it- there were a whole lot of cameras there that day!

I was intrigued by this photo, so I did some research tonight and came up with the registration for you. It was the fact that it was in basic Saudi colors that led me to the answer. Very cool catch...it's the only photo I can find in this scheme!
