From what I was told of the company back in those days, from someone that was there, it was a team of two halves. Them that liked American airplanes, and them that liked British aeroplanes.... "Go-around" vs "Overshoot" all that political nonsense.... then came the "shotgun marriage" with the dysfunctional family across the road......
BOAC/BA used to have a grandly titled "Maintenance Manager American Aircraft" and a "Maintenance Manager British Aircraft".
