That looks excellent.

I saw the BOAC 747 for the first time today too - I was on SK531 (A20N) - as SK have wi-fi I was looking at FR24 on approach and realised BOAC was behind us inbound from KWI, as we turned off the runway I got a good view of the landing and braking. That livery has class.

Apparently the black nose of the BEA livery causes the LHR stand guidance to stop working!

There was a 321 or 322 with this same livery at BKK a few days ago.

I love the BEA livery, what a pity it's only going to be around for a year, they should have put it on a A20N.
Now what about a BCal A320, that really would show class.

All these are great but a bit LHR focused, being LHR fleet. How about;
A BCAL for something from the LGW fleet &
A Cityflyer Express for something from the LCY fleet.
