Frankfurter Flughafen Fans - FFF: Pan Am Airbus A310 at Frankfurt am Main (Rhein-Main AB) (FRA / EDDF / FRF) on November 3, 1991
Photographed by Marc Lehmann
Photographerâs note: âClipper Midnight Sunâ is ready for pushback from gate B33. This picture is my last photo of a Pan Am plane. It was already operating for Delta with a small sticker behind the cockpit windows. Soon after that, the paint was removed, so this was quite a short-lived combination.
