Photo Comment

Built 1965 and used for Automatic Landing development before deliverd to BOAC in June 1967. Merged into British Airways in April 1974 and repainted during the first year. Wfu by BA in 1981 and sold to RAF for K4 Tanker conversion as ZD235. Wfu at St Athan 2002 and broken up 2004. This is not my photo, it belongs to my friend Nils Edvin Johansen who have asked me to scan and share the photo. What a joy it was as G-ASGG came on the BA643 flight from LHR this summer day. It made a lowpass along rwy 24 before landing, and is photographed while taxing out for departure back to LHR as BA644
