At the risk of causing offence, as a Landor lover, I think the old lady wouldn't have looked
out of place a decade after BA retirement

And painted engines... that's just wrong. Even Concorde looked awful in it IMHO.

I like it too, very sophisticated. I look at that scheme and think, "now there is an airline that knows how to serve up a Gin & Tonic" I look at the modern one whose description I cannot remember - the wavy bit of flag on the tail one and just know they would spill my G&T.

lol, they're pretty good at keeping the G&T in the glass, I've just clocked up 300 BA Avios in the last 12 months and they were all spill free, but there's little romance in flying anymore, one A3XX looks just like another and the last good looking aircraft the flew (The 757) is now gone. The 787 should look rather nice though
