Britain's premier airline is now among the world's elite. This book summarizes the early pioneering days and the nationalized postwar years of Britain European Airways and the British Overseas Airways Corporation. We then see the joining of these two under the banner of British Airways and follow its early history into successful privatization and the ailine's freedom to pursue new ventures. Every type of aircraft that has been operated by BA is described the nuances of livery styles are illustrated in color. British Airways has acquired airlines, invested in others and has franchise partners; these are identified and the aircraft described.
