Sporting incomplete colours, Concorde G-BOAG had a low-key start to its life as G-BFKW. After manufacture and with no buyer, it was loaned to British Airways to cover a six-month period while G-BOAC was being repaired at Filton. In April 1980 it was grounded with water contamination in the hydraulic system and did not fly again for another year, taking up the new registration only in February 1981 This photo is copyright © Richard Vandervord, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
