If you have been missing planespotting, riding in airplanes, being in airports, perusing inflight menus, studying vintage airline timetables or anything else air travel-related from the past year – or as far back as the 1920s – you are in luck.
After a few years offline, The Airchive website, which is filled with anything and everything (and we mean everything) aviation related, is back online for your education, entertainment and down-the-rabbit-hole journeys. And it is, as they say, bigger and better than ever, with photo-filled sections devoted to airlines, airplanes, airports, special flights and all manner of aviation-related ephemera and memorabilia, including timetables and route maps, brochures, safety cards, menus, postcards and more.
Curious to see what the headquarters of your favorite airline looks like? There is a section for that. Want to weep a while over airplanes in various desert boneyards waiting for dismantling? There is a section for that. Curious about what the airport terminals in Fairbanks, Alaska; Youngstown, Ohio; or in dozens or other cities looks like? There is a section for that. And if you have a few hours to read through a bounty of airline brochures, there is a section for that too.
