Interflug
Hello everybody!
I hope this is the right forum, but I just found an old briefcase filled with various peculiar items including different Interflug-stickers. I couldn´t help but laughing; there are five different coloured stickers with the IF logo and one really cool sticker with picture of IL-62 and the text "Interflug - The Airline of the German Democratic Republic". Why on earth do I still have those?
I only flew Interflug once between Helsinki and East Berlin about 20 years ago and my vague memories of those flights with TU-134s are actually quite positive. Do any of you have any memories of Interflug?
Regards,
Niko
P.S. If somebody collects that kind of stuff I am happy to send the stickers to you (I prefer orange colour...)

I flew an Interflug charter roundtrip between LGW and Leipzig in 1981.
The food on the outbound was definitely ferried in from the DDR. I have a feeling they probably ferried in the fuel, as well.
Very pleasant flight aboard an 134. It had the glass nose! The toilet I seem to remember had a skylight.
As Interflug did not have rights to overfly west Germany, the flight plan took the 'plane across Denmark and then due south from Rostock.
In '82, I flew an 154 on a couple of domestic Aeroflot flights. IF was a class act in comparison.

niko, I would love to get my hands on your stickers, as I collect commercial airline memorabelia, with a particular interest in Soviet aircraft. Send me an email with more details & let's see if we can work something out.
thanks
