Delivered to BOAC on 23.4.64 and seen here on finals to 10L at LHR round about the time of the British Airways merger, this magnificent machine was painted in Gulf Air colours in 10.75 but continued to be operated by BA on behalf of the Emir of Qatar. Became ZD493 on 10.9.82 and ferried from LHR to Brize Norton as BA9553E for spares use by the RAF. Slowly broken up from 1988 with fuselage used for fire practice; gone by 1994

Making almost certainly its last appearance at LHR, this shiny 707 joined Air India when new in 10.66 and ended its days as N8840A at Davis Monthan being parted out for the KC-135E programme from 1989; the hulk was still extant till at least 2005

I can remember being struck with the effectiveness of Alitalia's new colours in about 1970 and reckon that still holds good for the ailing airline today. This freighter was delivered to AZ in 5.68, being sold to Evergreen in 10.81 as N935F and USA Jet as N208US in 06.00. Noted stored at Willow Run with no engines in 2007

Don't think there was time to get across to the other side of the cul-de-sac for a better angle before this mustard-coloured 707 pushed. Delivered new to Lufthansa in 11.65; sold as VR-HTC in 10.85, later becoming VH-HTC, LZ-PVA and finally HC-BTB with AECA. Stored at Latacunga from 2000 and scrapped
