Photographer: Clive Head. K64 slide scan. Built 1968 as PP-SDN for Sadia, renamed Transbrasil 1972. BMA G-BAVX 1973, BAF 1977. Several leases to Nile Valley, Air Algerie, Libyan Arab, AGOCO. Painted for Aero Turbo Panama 1983 but deal fell through. From 1984 leased to Dan Air, Janus Airways and Euroair. Channel Express G-DGLG 1991, scrapped Exeter 1996. BAF regularly experimented with livery changes. Shortened "British" titles were introduced in 1987 after British Airways had dropped these in favour of the Landor scheme.
