Invaluable pictures Senor Figueiredo. This picture appears to be from the Head-land Sada airport?? I cannot remember a hanger in the background at Dabolim. http://www.flickr.com/photos/cultura_portuguesa_da_india/4713248315/in/photostream/
This was such a lovely airport.....organized, well laid out and one looked forward going there at the slightest excuse. I think Mario had written somewhere about arriving at Dabolim and meeting his Lot-li friend-cab driver. http://www.flickr.com/photos/cultura_portuguesa_da_india/4713248319/ Not sure anyone remembers the "Goan Airlines"; I have seen small collectables from the Goan Airlines. As well, a question I had posted earlier: did Goa ever have a flag? Thanks.
