英国航空’ Queens of the Skies will continue to inspire aviation enthusiasts across the UK for years to come, after permanent homes have been found for its remaining retro-liveried Boeing 747 aircraft – the last to leave the 英国航空 fleet.

这架飞机的注册号为G-BNLY和G-BYGC，将于本月从英国航空公司位于加的夫的工程基地出发，在那里，英国航空公司的工程师们将其甩掉，多年来他们一直自豪地维护着747机队。这对飞机是去年为纪念百年航空诞辰一百周年而涂上传统服装的几架飞机之一。

G-BNLY饰有1984年至1997年间使用的标志性Landor制服，在萨里的Dunsfold机场提供了新的生活常驻。它将与10月下旬退役的姊妹747 G-CIVW一起使用，它具有当前的Chatham Dockyard涂装。

G-BYGC，涂在1963年至1974年间使用的BOAC“黄金快鸟”制服中，将使从加的夫机场到格拉摩根山谷的Bro Tathan商业园区的路程很短。它将由航空专家eCube Solutions保留为遗产，以展示英国航空的747机队对英国航空所做的杰出贡献。

Sean Doyle, CEO of 英国航空, said: “While we will miss seeing them grace our skies, we are delighted to have found permanent homes for our remaining centenary 747 aircraft.

“We think they have great historical importance, not 上 ly to 英国航空 but to the entire aviation industry, 和 we are pleased they will be preserved for future generations in locations in the UK.

   

“As the final 747s to leave our fleet, their departure will be an emotional moment for former 和 current 英国航空 staff, including our engineering team in Cardiff who have lovingly looked after our jumbo jets for decades.”

G-BNLY 和 G-BYGC are the last two 英国航空 747s to be retired, with G-BYGC being the final 747 to leave the 英国航空 fleet. The Negus-liveried 747, registration G-CIVB, was 上 e of the last two 747s to depart Heathrow Airport in October 和 has also been found a permanent home at Cotswold Airport in Gloucestershire.
