Any takers for Z.

I can see Zoom in Canada, Zenith in South Africa, a number of airlines in China and about 20 more from all sorts of exotic (to me) countries.

Must be someone. If we don't get a response soon we will need to put the airlines to sleep - ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzz :lol:

Here's a Yak 42 in Venezuela a couple of years earlier which fortunately for me, I wasn't on!

Good idea MargoZ - and I suggest each post only contain one name.

I like Adelaide, we chose it for our last holiday. However my favourite city visited overseas is ...

Boston

Massachuttis

I knew Glen would come to the rescue with the Y and Z airlines.

Eucla

Where the Nullabor Plain meets the Great Australian Bight. In Western Australia near the South Australian border.

This is the old telegraph station not far from the sea. The sealing of the road across the Nullabor was completed the week before we reached Eucla in 1973.

Friuli, Italy
FriÃ»li is an area of northeastern Italy with its own particular cultural and historical identity,bordering Austria and Slovenia.

Married to a Friulano at one time and spent some time in the region, particularly Udine.

A month aftere I left...........there was a terrible earthquake:
1976 Friuli earthquake took place in the Friuli region in northeast Italy on Thursday, May 6, 1976. Measuring 6.9 on the Richter Scale, the quake, centered on the town of Gemona del Friuli, killed 989 people, 2400 injured and left 157,000 homeless[1]. It is known in Italy as Terremoto del Friuli
