Speedbird Call Signs 001-4
Does anyone know if BA will introduce the above call signs now that Concorde has stopped flying?

Speedbird 1 c/s is used quite regularly, operating from Royal Suite.

From my Knowledge, All four callsigns were retired with the Plane, But that just goes to show how that lasted if BAW1 is still in use.

I've never heard a BA royal or government charter as Speedbird 1 - normally something with four digits starting in 9 with a 'C' at the end...

There have certainly been 2 Speedbird 1s in the past month - I spoke to both of them! Both A320s and parked on RS.
