BA085 05/10 LGW/YVR which airframe?
I flew on the above flight recently and rather wanted to know the reg of the B747-400 I travelled on? Anyone know how I might find out or would have this information please?

Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply, much appreciated!

It may well look resplendent with its new coat of arms on the outside but I assure you that the WTP cabin at least is a pile of carp.

Watch out Groundhog I might have to call you a plane spotter. You will be seen soon sitting next to NQY instead of on your board..........

I imagine it flew all the way using its engines though...

The airframe of an aircraft is its mechanical structure. It is typically considered to include fuselage, wings and undercarriage and exclude the propulsion system

You could have a long wait to see anything moving at NQY at the moment :-(

xtypeman - oooh you beaky chugger, busy watching Otters and Beavers out the window at the minute and not the furry ones either. Think I will leave the spotting to the experts who know what an airframe is, clearly my knowledge of aviation is lacking somewhat.
