Do you ever do any work?

Great office and collection.

Further to my earlier reply...I used to have BA BAC 1-11 and 757 models during my bachelor days....bought them from the BA shop at the corner of Gordon St in Glasgow..Eventually threw them out when they became too tatty after being knocked over countless times and bits went missing.

In a surprising update to the above. Mrs Clam has said she can live with the young tart model I keep on the side but could the rest of you gentlemen please stop showing me all these toys as I have a bad enough 'anything BA' obsession as it is and she doesn't need more junk cluttering up the place!

( her words you understand, not mine. I'd never dream of calling Olivia "junk" )

I have a few large scale models, but I’m under constant watch from the other half who says they are too big and get in the way, don’t buy any more blah blah blah - whatever 😇😝


Large scale Concorde - its about 3-4 ft long



Space models 737-200



Space models 777-200 scale 1:100



1:100 scale 767 - unsure of maker

And although not strictly BA, it did become BA - my old BCal DC10......


Space models DC10 scale 1:100

These are just the big scale models. I have numerous small scale Wooster type BA models dating back to the 1980’s, when I collected as a kid - tons of them, too many to detail here.....

I used to have a great B Cal. model, but a base move to Brum was more fun for her than boring old London.

The bcal took me back to my first job, just so happens it was with BA late eighties and I was involved with the bcal integration.

As a tea boy may I add, I was only 18!

I don't have any models, and now I feel sad.

Great photos folks, keep them coming!

Great collection. Good to see Trevor Thom on the bookcase also! 👍

I have no BA planes as scale models at the time being, since none of the ones on sale are of those BA airplanes with a registration that would match my flight history. Once I've travelled with a plane that has a matching registration, then I've indeed planned for acquiring the plane as a scale model as well.

I do however have other Speedbird decor, but it's slightly off-topic.

Here we are, looking a little sad for its age. Somewhere along the way the wheels have come off (which is not intended as a metaphor for BA itself ! ), and one forgets how small Concorde was, especially at 1:144 scale.

The livery that never was. Looks good though.

I've got a little 767 model in the office. At least I think it's still there. I haven't been back there since March. Got it at the little model shop up the street from work near ZRH.
