Golly BelArg !

Ditto

BOAC Strat, March 1958 NY - LDN
then BOAC Strat, April 1958 LDN- Kingston ( to connect Avianca L-1049 service to Barranquilla)

My mother sent me to rescue my father from bar lounge below after a few too many G&Ts . I recall ( at 4.3 years old) looking up thru lounge window at horizontal stabiliser which seemed miles above.

Alas got no souvenirs only a post card that said BOAC Stratocruiser Speed Bird RMA Cordilia. Landed Heathrow North Terminal - now Terminal 3 I think.

To think that not a single B377 was preserved !!
