BOAC-Cunard's 707-436 has just arrived at Ringway on BA538 from JFK via Prestwick. The other 707 had operated the schedule from Toronto and Montreal. Today, BA has abandoned all UK provincial airports to become, effectively, "London Airways". Continental, Delta, American and others have hastened to fill the void. Well done BA (?).
