Photo Comment

One of my earliest slides just before (fortunately) switching to Kodachrome. G-ANBL was received by BOAC on 2 March 1957 and was leased by Britannia Airways from June 1965. Sub-leased to Southern Cross just for a month and returned to Britannia who then purchased her, but scrapped at Luton July 1972 after 18 months' storage. An Airlift 707 (background) is one thing I don't have in my collection...
