If this lack of a UK Union flag, does not bother you- fair enough. It bother's me though. I thought we were still a sovereign nation. Apparently not.
to operate fligths from other soverign European nations to the US!

Air France started flying from LHR to LAX (AF060, 17.00 Treminal 2) on day 1 of the Open Skies agreement.

On all other BA aircraft the red streamer part of the flash points towards the tail as if being blown by the wind. On the Open Skies aircraft it points towards the nose.

The Speedbird emblem was carried on BOAC aircraft (latterley in gold on a blue background). This isn't a Speedbird emblem.

For the record, with BA the BOAC and initial BA livery carried the speedbird, the 1984 Landor colours introduced the speedwing, and with the 1997 colours, it's called the speedmarque.
