Yes, it was bought out by the various Emirates in the early 1970s, probably at the time the registrations were changed from G- to local ones. Muscat I believe as A4O; the various admin tasks being spread among the different new owners. Someone will know more. BOAC were still a minority owner of Bahamas Airways as well when they got the new One-Eleven in 1968, so it was being passed around among friends.
