I heard that she could unload the passengers luggage rather quickly.

.. and the passengers too. New York to New York - non-stop I think it looks kinda nice in Pan AM ;-)

Certainly faster than Terminal 5 can load it. :roll:

Dave, yes, its not bad looking in an odd way, is it ? That blue stripe down the side sets it off nicely.

Was that the one based around the VC10 Chris?? Triple fuselage jobbie with 6 Medways bolted to the rear end.! Very 'Thunderbirds' looking

It could be that one, but not sure if that would be described as a blended wing. The fact that Vickers became part of BAC would fit the bill, though.

[Vulcan_to_the_Sky!]

Thats a really interesting aircraft (The Atlantic). They should have built it!, looks to me like something out of Thunderbirds, quite futuristic.

[Garry Russell]

No one was interested....too expensive to operate

it would have needed support and had it got it that would have meant something else that did get supported wouldn't have.

One of many impactable designs that never saw the light of day
