Arrow BA Fleet and Travel Class Guide

Taking advantage of a light boozy lunch today, the long overdue revamp of the BA Fleet Guide has been completed, in its draft form at least. So if you're as daft about aircraft as I clearly am, this thread's for you

For the very latest information on specific aircraft types/configurations the https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/brit...r-tracker.html and https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/brit...-aircraft.html thread are highly recommended.

Nice work ^

A small number of corrections:

The shorthaul 767s and some A320s have mainscreen IFE, and it should perhaps also be noted that the rest of the shorthaul fleet has mainscreen moving maps.

1 of the 772s (non-ER) has Thales AVOD. 9 of the 772ERs have Thales AVOD - there are only 6 772ERs and 2 772s (non-ER) that have the 12 channel GMIS system. The rest of the 772ERs have Upgrades TES. Could be worth differentiating these.

Should there be an A380 placeholder akin to the 787 one?

Thanks. Now corrected.

I love this new software eightblack introduced me to, called Keynote. It really makes light work updating these slides.

Also, the 3 non-ER 772s have a range of only around 6k miles I believe.

Thank you gents. You can probably see I've begun adding a string of reg numbers beneath each image. I plan to use these to highlight any nuances/deviations from the standard configuration. Might also be useful to signify old First from new and Thales updates as these progress.
