G-AODG (cn 77) BMA was the last of many owners, acquiring G-AODG in June, 1967. During the approach to East Midlands Airport, on 20th February, 1969, with a snowstorm blowing, the pilot landed 1000 feet short of the runway, collapsing the nose gear and breaking the cabin in two. Still attached to the keel, the rear fuselage dropped to the ground, from the front of the third cabin window shown in the photo. Although there was a full load, no fatalities resulted from this close call with fate. G-AODG was a W/O. |

G-ANHB (cn 62) A cabin interior of the mid-1950's. BEA's Viscount 701 fleet had a mixture of forward and rear facing seats, as shown in this view looking rearwards down the cabin. Three seats on the port side and two seats on the starboard. Typical seating and net luggage racks with no doors. Ventilators in the cabin sides. All very period! |

G-APIM (cn 412) My first view of the inside of this classic British Airliner, stored here at the Brooklands Museum. It was assembled here and first flew on the 4th June, 1958. It then served with BEA and later Cambrian, before moving to BAF. It was damaged beyond repair after another aircraft hit it at Southend in 1988. There is no mistaking those very large, oval cabin windows on this aircraft. |

F-BGNU (cn 38) One of the most successful of the first-generation post-war transports. It was particularly well liked by the passengers, as it was quiet, vibration free, and had much larger windows than those found on more modern airliners. |
