British Airways' Latest Heritage project...

Postby C » Mon Apr 17, 2006 2:40 pm

Seems well underway. Bye bye to the only Rolls Royce engined 707 in the UK... :-/ >:(

DISGRACEFUL!

The rest, other than the VC-10 are being shipped to Scotland (so fine if you can afford the extortionate rail fare!). The VC-10 is also in line to become several thousand dog food tins...

Ryanair/EasyJet/Cheapo McCheap Airlines don't seem so bad afterall...

(Oops, forgot the link!)

Whiskey is Irish or American. Genuine Scotch is spelled Whisky. :P ;)
