AVIANCA did not serve London, so this visit to Pan Am Maintenance at Heathrow was a treat. This is the delivery colour scheme I think, aircraft named after Simon Bolivar, a Caracas born General who won independence from Spanish rule for Bolivia, Panama, Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, and Colombia in the early 19th century, which might have entitled him to complimentary coffee had there been airlines in those days!

The 747SP was quite difficult to photograph attractively.You can see the simplified flaps of the SP in this shot. The relatively oversized wing could get it up to 43,000 feet, higher than most in the mid-seventies. Read the account of this 747SP, Clipper Constitution's inaugural to HNL on the 747SP site
