THE SIGHT & THE SOUND 5/6 : Garuda Indonesia MD-11 PK-GIG documentary from Denpasar to Jakarta

GARUDA INDONESIA MD-11 PK-GIG DENPASAR - JAKARTA MARCH 26, 1998 In March we decided to go on vacation together with my father in law, wife and daughter to Indonesia to visit the beautiful islands of Bali and Lombok soon after he became a widower. This video features the return leg from Denpasar (Bali island) back to Jakarta, where we had an unexpected aircraft change from PK-GIG to PK-GIL for the onward flight to Tokyo Narita. However, also this flight was taped with the very first generation of video cameras with digital recording on mini DV cassettes. There were neither stabilizing nor focusing features available at that time. I therefore apologize for the poor video quality and hope that you still can capture the feeling of what it was like to fly in the 90s. History of Garuda Indonesia MD-11 PK-GIG Airframe 48502 was manufactured 1992 and registered N9076Y by McDonnell Douglas Finance Corporation (MDFC), November 1, 1992.
