Talking about IA, here's a timetable from 1970.

Looking at these airline campaigns, it's clear that AI has really sunk/nose-dived from what it was.

There was another spectacular AI ad in print.


Had a picture of a 747-237B over the Himalayas. The 747 was below the photgrapher, so it was a magnificent spread/overhead shot across two pages. The AI red stood out from the white and grey Himalayas.


Came once in Illustrated Weekly of India in the early 1980s.


Does anyone know this one?

No Himmat-ji


The Himalayas were below the AI 747. And the spotter plane/photgrapher's plane was above the 747. So it was actually a shot of a 747 passing below.


Over the Himalayas, it was spectacular.

there one about AI's A310 on Airbus's website.  Sadly, the picture quality has gone down since the last time I saw.  Here is the link

one thing has to be noted, the inflight magazine of IC has always been better than AI's.

Nimish....I dont agree.Do you see reports of Cargo Aircrafts in the Media.Look abroad too.The Media scare is not Existing.Out here if a Topic sticks,its bombarded on the Visual Media for a week continously.


Interviews of Pax asking them what they thought occured.Talk to the Professionals,get their opinion.


Remember the B744 skid on  14-32 last July when the Cloudburst occured at BOM.Did you listen to the news.Interviewing Pax & exicting & Dramatic headlines.You need a Professional Aviation knowledagble Jurno to talk on these topics.


Read the Print media on Aviation.Thats a joke.


K [cricket on Anet] is one Jurno I know that knows Aviation.


thats my opinion.

I am sure the advertisements and publicity materials printed by AI in the 1950s and 1960s were amongst the most creative in the airline industry.
