Boeing 707-138B VH-EBA City of Melbourne amongst the palm trees at Eagle Farm, Brisbane on 17 December 1964, coincidentally the 61st anniversary of the Wright Brothers' first flight. The aircraft was operating QF737 Sydney-Brisbane-Singapore-Bangkok-New Delhi-Teheran-Rome-London. The igloo building at extreme right is what passed for Brisbane's International Terminal at the time. Peeking out from behind the terminal is a TAA Viscount. The motor vehicles (as identified by Robert Phillips) are left to right: Simca station wagon, Morris 1100 and Vauxhall Viva.
