My favorite picture of a plane in the whole world is this one that Austin Bergstrom posted on their Instagram of the Negus landing in the wildflowers (it is also my profile pic on the ifc)

It’s nice to have many heritage liveries of British Airways, not just only the current standard livery.

Thank you guys for the support. 4 votes in a couple hours. Awesome. A few more couldn’t hurt😉
I would prefer the Landor, but do whatever floats your boat.
Keep it on topic, please.
I have no free votes, unfortunately. If I did, I would vote for it.
