Airplane Art Special – 100 years of British Airways featuring the RetroJets

25/08/2019 by Kevincm

It’s Sunday again, so it must be time for some more airplane art.

This week, British Airways celebrates it’s 100th Anniversary since one of its founding airlines flew – and as such, I’ve gathered all four current Retrojets Britsh Airways currently operate in its fleet.

As the airlines passes it’s formal 100th anniversary – with it spending 72 years at its base of Heathrow Airport, the airline continues to grow, as well as having its own pains to deal with (one need only look the current dispute between it’s pilots it has at the moment).

More Airplane art next week!

Many thanks to British Airways for access to events to capture the images at Heathrow Airport.
