Yes, but I seem to remember them being bigger and lower down. I was actually looking for the door logo, but hadn’t been able to see it until you mentioned it. Maybe there were different versions over the Landor lifetime
It looks like the crest and titles weren't on all aircraft; but where they were, they were the same size as what is now on G-BNLY.

There was a more noticeable oneworld logo (missing from G-BNLY's current livery, although I wouldn't be surprised if it's an added decal) which appears consistently in all of the old photos I looked at.

This, however, is not a comprehensive search or analysis:-

G-BNLY scheduled to arrive at MIA tonight. None of the sites show its next flight - want to know if I should drive down tonight or if it will be there in the morning. Any ideas?

PS - flying LHR-JFK on 11 June on a 747. Hope I get a retro!

Thanks! With the rolling pages, it's so hard to see the wikis.

Looks like I will be driving down tonight. Hope I can see it from the street.

She went to the maintenance hanger by the threshold of 27R/L. Hence messing up my hopes of a photo of all three retrojets! Got two of them though.

Would be nice if they managed to organise a line up of them all once completed.

Personally I think Landor is the best (but maybe that has something to do with growing up with it). The BOAC one is much better than I was expecting though and the BEA suits the A319 beautifully.

Interesting that there is no Speed Wing on the Landor retro scheme. Great video of the LHR arrival here:
she is gloriously shiny!

Im guessing as the livery is ‘British Airways’ there is no need to spell it out again, only the ‘100’ logo close to the tail though hard to see in silver.

It's the red stripe with the angled "hook" at the forward end.

Is it just me, or was that a retro de-rotation technique too?

I’m thinking (and putting words in someone’s mouth) that it’s the current swoosh missing. I believe they are present on the BOAC / BEA frames as they don’t say British Airways. This one does so hence no need for the ribbonette.
