It’s Sunday again, so it must be time for some more Airplane Art.
This week, we have a British Airways Boeing 787-9 being towed to the maintenance areas at its home base of London Heathrow Airport.
British Airways operates a fleet of 18 Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners in its long-haul fleet. The airline also operates the Airbus A350-1000, Airbus A380, Boeing 777-200ER, Boeing 777-300ER, Boeing 787-8 and Boeing 787-10 in its long-haul operation.
These aircraft connect Heathrow to the world from the airline’s hub at Terminal 5.
This aircraft – G-ZBKR – joined the British Airways fleet in March 2018. It has remained in service with the airline since then, operating in a Four-Class configuration.
The aircraft is in active service, with the airline operating from its Heathrow base to Kuwait City, Nashville, Toronto, San Jose and Seattle in recent days.
More Airplane Art next week!
