G-A*** This sunset view shows two (leased) Syrian Arab 707s at their gates, the captain just leaving the nearest aircraft. Beyond are a British Airtours 707 (far right) & VC10s of Gulf Air (left) and BA (the fin of this one still bearing the BOAC Speedbird logo). The rear view of a 747 can also just be seen far right. Two BA/BEA Vanguard Merchantmen can be seen at the distant cargo terminal picture left, with the fin of a cargo 747 on the skyline. In the distance a Trident makes a smoky departure. (Zenit B) |

G-AWN* This was taken from one of the Heathrow viewing terraces in 1974, the year that British Airways was inaugurated from the amalgamation of BEA and BOAC. Most of the joint fleet’s respective colour schemes were retained initially (as with this BOAC 747), with only the titles replaced with the new BA typeface, which was the subject of debate because of the diminutive ‘a’ in ‘airways’. A memorable television advertising campaign throughout 1974 did much to establish the company’s current brand identity. |

G-BOAC (cn 204) The compact forward bathroom onboard alpha-charlie. Considering the first class travel and prestige of Concorde, it's nothing special. There's very little room for a bathroom due to the sleek shape of the fuselage. Just shows the rich and famous don't always get gold plated facilities!
