British Airways today retired its final Boeing 747, following over five decades of Boeing 747 operations, after BOAC-liveried G-BYGC performed the 5-mile flight between Cardiff at St. Athan, in South Wales.
Today, the 11th December 2020, marked the final British Airways Boeing 747 flight, following the fleets grounding and removal from service in March 2020, following the fall in demand for global air travel. Following this arrival at the former MOD site, G-BYGC will be preserved by eCube Solutions in the Bro Tathan business park, located next to the airfield.
G-BYGC was delivered to BA in January 1999. During 2019, it was re-painted into the classic BOAC scheme for the airlines' centenary celebrations, alongside repaints of the Landor and Negus liveries on other 747's, and a BEA retro livery on an Airbus A319.
This video marks another sad casualty for the aviation industry in the current situation it finds itself within.
I hope you're all staying safe and enjoyed the video.
