OTTOMH -

LHR to SYD 'til late 70s ? was mostly via HKG BA 888 ("The Late88" - thanks 2UE)

Replaced by - via SIN BA 11/12 or BKK BA09/10 – (as two separate services)

arrive SYD early morning – day shuttle to BNE or MEL
dep SYD for UK early evening.

Not sure where ADL, PER, AKL, CHC, BWN and BOM fitted in, but they did, more or less. Someone will know.

100/200 ? Mix and match. BA didn't do BOM-PER with the 100 because of performance issues I think. After the Roller did the inaugural and first few, they sent whatever they had available. LFH
