If some of BA's 747 fleet (oldest or newest) really are going to parked up on a temporary basis isnt there anywhere closer that could be used instead of flying them out to the desert ?
If you know of anywhere which has a similar climate and facilities to those areas in the US, ie Arizona and parts of southern California, and is nearer to the UK, then I'm sure British Airways would love to hear from you!

Maybe there's a business opportunity there for a budding entrepeneur - pity Dragon's Den isn't still running...
well unless i am mistaken Cornwall County Council soon take over ownership of the whole NQY site. This includes one hell of alot of a/c parking and taxiways which the current commercial airport does not require/use on the RAF side of the airport. ideal parking for unwanted aircraft as far as i can see!
