Beschreibung:

G-AWNA was the first 747 to be delivered to a British airline when BOAC took delivery of her on 20th April 1970. The JumboJet was the 23rd 747 built (s/n 19761), made her maiden flight on March 15, 1970 and originally cost $21 Million. In 1974 BOAC and BEA merged to become British Airways, and "November Alpha" has flown with them until being withdrawn from use. Throughout its career, the 747 wore three different names: "Sir Richard Grenville" (1979–1984), "City of Peterborough" (1984–1989), and finally "Colliford Lake". The four-holer was removed from service some 19 months after the picture was taken: The JumboJet flew its last commercial flight on October 31, 1998 flying from Philadelphia to London-Heathrow as BA068. At the time of the 747's retirement the long-haul plane was the oldest and longest serving 747 still operated by its original airline owner. The four-holer spent a total of 102,151 hours in the air, made a total of 20,919 take-offs and landings and travelled over 51 million miles... Sadly, the historic aircraft was not preserved and cut up at Bruntingthorpe in 1999...
