20-02-14: Final scheduled international DC-10 passenger flight (S2-ACR)
Biman Airlines Last DC-10 at Birmingham Airport BHX
The old lady finally arrives from Dhaka/Kuwait, Biman Airlines DC-10 S2-ACR touches down at 17:55 on runway 33 at BHX (Birmingham Airport) this evening...not bad for a gal approximately 43 years old.

She only has a few more flying days left, 3 of which are days full with pleasing aviation enthusiasts taking them on 1 hour scenic flights starting at BHX and ending at BHX.

If you want to see her in her final hours get down to Sheldon County Park at the end of Runway 15 (Marston Green Train Station) this Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

After then we shall never see her again as she will be sent off to the USA and placed in a museum.

"It's a fitting end.."
