There is a model, on wings900, of a Caravelle in the old paint job. On airliners net there is a photo of HS TGG, which reverted to OY KRE when returned to SAS in 1970. The photo is by Lars oderstrom.

Interesting that you ask, as I had all this on file because I was checking my first TG flight, and it was a Douglas DC8 out of SYD, which overnighted @ Singapore, before completing the flight the next day. I can recall initially staying at Hotel Malaysia on Tanglin Road in Singapore, later at the Hilton because roof top pools were a rarity back then, and the Siam Intercontinental in Bangkok.
