Hello, 😊
I’m reaching out because I was very familiar with the B.A. 181 at IVATO from January 1965 to July 1967 (I was 11 years old in 1965).
I think I recognize the movie theater (second photo from the left at the top).
In fact, in 1967 (June or July), it was used as a morgue after a civilian plane accident. I know it’s not a happy memory, but I’m mentioning it to support what I’m saying.
I also recognized the tennis court facade, where the pool was on the other side of the road.
So many great memories...
Best regards,
Yves FERRARO
During your travels in South America or the Maghreb countries, have you come across Michel Plumier? He's Belgian, worked in Algeria, and likely in South America as well. Thanks to anyone who might have news of him.
Hello Yves, the date of the plane crash was 19/07/1967. It was a DC4 1009 from Air Madagascar, and there were no survivors (42 fatalities).
