  • I have no idea why BA decided to put a black ring on their 757 radomes...
    Welcome to my fleet histories series. In it I review year-by-year aircraft fleets of an airline.
    In this video I go through the history of British Airways' Boeing 757 fleet, from 1983 until its retirement in 2010.
    This series is inspired by Elmauriplatense. You can check out his channel here: / elmauriplatense
    Music: "Force" - Alan Walker
    All images are sourced from Google Images and Planespotters.net.
    What should my next fleet history be? Put your ideas in the comments!

    Lovely tribute to my favourite plane. I flew on her as the BA Shuttle between GLA and LHR many times. Very sad to see her go.

    The 'To Fly To Serve' scheme looked classy, timeless and worthy of the nation's carrier. Can't understood why BA reverted to cheap and tacky. A retrograde step.

    I don’t know. The Landor livery always seemed like low class attempting to speak RP.
    The world tails seemed like high class trying to speak Cockney.
    Chatham Historic Dockyard gets its right... Londoners speaking Estuary, Northerners speaking Northern, etc. Nothing to hide, not pretending. It’s not Buckingham Palace nor has it gone native.. it’s just an airline from Great Britain.
