BOAC VC10 to Bogota any one ?

Any BOAC Super VC10 pilots out there flying between 1969 to mid 70s to BOG El Dorado?

If so I was one of the kids waiving to you from the passenger gate building terrace (alas now closed to public) .

What memories that brings - wishing I could get a ride while listening to the quartet of Conways start up and then see it depart on runway 13/31.

The LHW-BOG route was previously served by Britannias and later 707s.

BOAC in latter 70s handed the route over to Britich Caledonian DC10-30 but retook it mid 80s as British Airways after the BCal takeover I pressume with 747s.
