Notes:

[1400px] 10 years ago, and it seems it was yesterday! A TAM A330 is ready to line up on runway 10 of SSA, departing back to São Paulo in the last rays of sunlight. Their A330 fleet is now long gone, replaced by the Boeing 767 fleet inherited from the merger with LAN. As a Boeing fan, I love the 767, but one might wonder if this replacement was really a good decision.

Marcel and Eduardo, many thanks! Indeed the TAM A330 was a fine looking bird. Strange to think they were retired from the fleet!
