From Concorde to BAC 1-11, a #ThrowbackThursday to how splendid the different BA’s fleet types looked in #Landor livery. 👌

@flybyday63 Hope that at least one 747 gets this livery before retirement

@flybyday63 Beautifu! Though I have always wondered why Concorde was never painted with a blue belly? Was it owing to her sleek body there just wasn't the room?

@garethbrs It was to do with the heat when flying supersonic. White is the best for Concorde. That midnight blue along the fuselage of the Landor livery, would have been really impractical, or even an impediment for Concorde reaching supersonic speeds.

@LageSure Eso quería, pero aplicar para volar en Concorde iba en seniority, y por aquel entonces yo era junior. Y finalmente los pararon, sin poder haber accedido a esa flota. :(

@flybyday63 BAC-111 now that was an aircraft to watch take off. Stood watching from a distance you could feel the vibrations in your chest as it opened up down the runway and see the black trail in the air it left behind. Seen so many depart from BHX, I miss them!!

@flybyday63 Unfortunately, known as 'Fly the Fag' because of its similarity to a tobacco company logo.

@flybyday63 @Nevtech27 Seeing these makes me wonder; What on earth happened to BA?! They've gone rapidly downhill since the 80s
