Delivered in January 1961 and scrapped at EGLL in May 1973. So common at Heathrow in the early 1960s it was possible to 'clear' the whole BEA fleet in one or two visits. So reviled by teenage spotters that the name Vanguard became a synonym for anything "slack". They were actually quite an impressive sight with the four Tynes driving 14.5 ft. (4.42 m) diameter propellers.

A poor quality shot, but useful as it illustrates a little known short-term lease prior to MEA receiving its own aircraft beginning 19 December 1960. This lease ran from 1 October, with the aircraft entering service on 30 October, so here likely on a crew training mission.

A poor quality photo, but still worth uploading since it shows the first production 707 in service. Initially rolled out on 28 October 1957 in Boeing house livery (as here) then repainted before delivery in late 1958. The aircraft was destroyed on 17 September 1965 when it flew into a mountain on Montserrat while in descent for Antigua.
