This will either elicit a “I flew that route” or massed groans from the entire membership….
It’s one for the relevant BA pilots perhaps, or those who keep detailed records of this type..
Year: 1999
Month: March
Date (even the date!): 23rd-28th
Route: LHR – AUH
Aircraft: B777 (200?)
Likely Registrations: G-???
I’m assuming that with a 10.15 departure(local) here, arriving AUH 22.00 (local) and a return flight departing 02.00 it’s possible the same aircraft would be used on the return leg…..or maybe not? Perhaps it would leave within 2 hours for an onward destination with a UK bound plane arriving AUH at say 00.00 for departure at 02.00 to LHR?
If not and the same 2/3 aircraft were used back and forth any idea of the registrations? Why? Just curious as to what became of them, which I should find at the CAA database?
