Skylion and BEagle
Thank you for your comments on my blog congratulating Lufthansa on their preservation record compared to B.As.
There are many photographs of airliners from around the world on the net decorated in joyous colours and designs. J.A.Ls Disney 747s for example.
What did B.A. do ? Painted the nose cone of a 747 gold when bringing home the Olympic team.
An embaressing British national carrier lacking guts and whimsy and an almost Imperial Airways arrogance.
Once again congratulations to Lufthansa, Qantas and all the other world airlines who have preserved aircraft from the former fleets.
BEagle. My wife flys on business trips to India, and I will only let her fly on Emirates.
