Leaving so soon? Not disputing what you told us all here, but:
I think I can recall seeing G-BOAG nearing completion.
G-BOAG was NEVER in the Brabazon hangar under that registration, she was G-BFKW. She was re-registered to G-BOAG at Heathrow, after BA decided too keep her following a loan in the early 1980s (This loan was due to G-BOAC being returned to Fliton for wing repairs following a serious overheat).
Of the last two British aircraft, only G-BOAF resided at Filton under that registration, although only briefly following her acquisition by BA. Before that she was G-BFKX
What a crying shame it was that, after securing the block of letters G-BOAA to G-BOAG, the airline changed its name.
What total bilge; British Airways is a perfectly good name thank you very much.
As far as the lynch mob goes, if you'd only posted your points in a sensible and non-inflamitory manner (not to mention have interjected some facts now and then) you would I'm sure been a welcome contributer. The mob was of your own making sir.
