British Airways Aircraft Names

[vctenderness]

With reference to leased 747-148 G-PDPZ - Paddy Zulu.

It is part of the BA legend that when it was returned to Aer Lingus in their livery of white and Green the lads who ferried it left a note on the flight deck which read: PLEASE FLY GREEN SIDE UP.

apologies to anyone of Irish descent

[Shaggy Sheep Driver]

It is part of the BA legend that when it was returned to Aer Lingus in their livery of white and Green the lads who ferried it left a note on the flight deck which read: PLEASE FLY GREEN SIDE UP.

That's most interesting! I can confirm that I flew Copenhagen - Manchester on an Aer Lingus aeroplane probably back in the late 80s or early 90s (the memory is fading!) and visited the flight deck. On the back of the flight deck door was a sticker "Fly this aeroplane green side up"!

I remember it a round printed sticker and assumed it was common in Aer Lingus flight decks, but time plays tricks with the memory.

[Flightrider]

There's a bit more to that story, although I don't know that it relates directly to Paddy Zulu or one of the other two Aer Lingus 747s on which BA were conducting a major check.

Apparently, the "Fly Green Side Up" placard was translated into Gaelic and left on the centre console, unattached to the aircraft, as a bit of light amusement.

Before the arrival of the Aer Lingus crew to take the aircraft home, one of the BA senior engineers did a walk-through of the aircraft, and spotted said placard on the the flightdeck. Not appreciating its content, he thought it must have been a mistake that it had not been mounted properly, so called two mechanics to screw the placard onto the aircraft in a blank mounting space.

They duly did as tasked, and an apoplectic reaction ensued from the Aer Lingus crew when they arrived and saw the placard. It was, I'm told from someone who was present, nearly cause for deployment of a UN peacekeeping force to the BA hangar at Heathrow.

I'm sure the tale will have been embellished somewhat over the years, but that's what I heard from someone who said he was there....

I liked the Aer Lingus scheme of giving saint's names to their aircraft.

Did that help their accident statistics ?

Seriously, changing the name given to a ship has always been understood as meaning very bad luck. Aircrafts are re-named quite often. Are pilots less superstitous than sailors ?

[rightbank]

Another small correction. G-BDXH was City of Edinburgh not Elgin. I only remember this as it was the Indonesian volcano aircraft and I flew on it a week after reading a book about the incident.

[sparkie320]

BA names

think will start to add the older aircraft as so many have replied

next project got to be British Caledonian any offers of help there

thanks again all

G-ARTA, The prototype VC10.........'Loch Ness'.
There's your starter.
And well done with the BA List too.

[DaveReidUK]

G-BDXL – CITY OF WESTMINSTER

G-BDXL was "City of Winchester".

It may have worn "City of Westminster" briefly, but I can't find any evidence for that.

Another small correction. G-BDXH was City of Edinburgh not Elgin

No, it was renamed after Jakarta.

[rightbank]

No, it was renamed after Jakarta

If it was renamed it was some time after Jakarta. That happened in 1982 and my flight in it was December 1987. Its the only time I ever flew in a -200 and it still had City of Edinburgh on the nose then. As I said I had only just finished reading the book about the incident so it was a surprise to see the name on disembarking.

[dixi188]

I remember the unveiling of BCAL's first B747 G-BJXN.
Adam Thompson pulled back the curtain to reveal "MUNGO PARK The Scottish Explorer" and we all said WHO?

No argument there - it was renamed from "City of Edinburgh" to "City of Elgin" in 1989, so the latter name was the one worn for most of its 22 years with BA.

[renfrew]

I always thought it rather a pity that the Imperial Airways/BOAC names wre not carried forward.
eg Caledonia/Canopus/Coriolanus on C Class and Stratocruisers.
Bristol/Berwick/Bangor on Boeing 314 and L049.

[rightbank]

That would make sense as the OP has G-BNLB, a -436 also named City of Edinburgh and that was registered in...1989! On closer examination I notice that the list has a few duplicate names. I guess they wanted the bigger cities names on the newer aircraft.

[sparkie320]

update list of names

It seems this started a bit bigger then expected
so added Viscounts /Vangaurds that moved over to British Airways
This list covers just British Airways not BEA/BOAC yet
Enjoy and of course coment
i assume No 707s /VC10s gained names
