British Airways, in a drive to become a 'world' airline rather than a British airline, embarked on an ambitious but ultimately misguided corporate rebranding, but one that would cost the carrier dearly in terms of reputation.
Also from this series:
Motion History
Before British Airways
Vickers VC10
Elegant BOAC's Golden Speedbird livery (1965-1973).
