Another stunning model. I had this made as I used to travel to Paris from London Luton in the summer visiting family!

Hi Tony,

You are right it's a City Express. BA never flew these as such, but they wore the Landor Livery.

Yeah when i used to go spotting as a teenager i used to cycle to my local airport where BA Express flew into using a J-41 in Landor colours operated by Manx, used to love it and in those days i could go out on to the apron because i knew the guys working in the airport and sit in the captains seat during turnarounds !! I think landor was BA nicest scheme a very classic look
