G-BNLY Boeing 747-436 British Airways (Landor Livery)
Saturday 24th August 2019, with the temperatures soaring at London Heathrow to 33 degrees Celsius / 91 Fahrenheit, this late blast of Summer heat made for a great weekends viewing.
What started out as a potential trip aboard one of the "Retro liveried" BA aircraft sadly turned out to be a non runner, for a variety of reasons........ Any excuse to remain at Heathrow was quickly snatched up!
Speedbird 274 on short finals to runway 09L from Las Vegas.
Designed by Landor & Associates the livery was carried by the airline from 1984 until 1997, when the much maligned "Utopia Tails livery" was unveiled.
The crest on the tail was the airlines iconic "To Fly To Serve" on The Coat of Arms.
