We are 100 days away from our big birthday! The countdown begins now…🎉🎉 #BA100 #Centenary

Update to the BA retrojet fleet movements for the next few days. As always, this is subject to last minute operational change. Please note, this will be the last update until early June, due to annual leave. See you in June 👋

Hopefully BAretrojets will be able to return soon, once this is confirmed by British Airways

As 2019 draws to a close I hope you've all enjoyed the #BA100 retro liveries. I'm sorry the advance notice had to be suspended as BA's new social media rules interfered with the intent here. I'll retweet any favourite photos you send me of the fleet. Best regards, Tim Byatt

Well here we go, and what an amazing photo to start with, taken by Anne Rogers, of G-BYGC in BOAC colours, alongside the Red Arrows at the 2019 RIAT. #BA100

This has to be another contender for best photo, by AirbusRed, of A319 G-EUPJ, wearing BEA colours. She will be the first of the 4 retrojets to leave the fleet, provisionally in Feb 2020, so catch her whilst you can, before she's retired.

And this I absolutely love, by Niel Swart 😍 G-BNLY looking at her absolute best ! #BA100

Camelback Mountain behind, taken by Kory (LevelFlight) of the Negus & Negus liveried B744 G-CIVB landing on R/W26 at Phoenix Sky Harbor. Good news if you like the B747 on this route from LHR, she'll be returning to PHX selectively throughout the summer, including all of Sept

In case you missed this stunning shot of A319 G-EUPJ, taken in Salzburg in March, here it is again. This has to be a contender for best British Airways retrojet photograph of the year. 😍

This ramp action shot of Landor liveried B744 G-BNLY is another stunning shot, floodlit on the apron under a crescent moon. Thanks go to 𝙄𝙣𝙙𝙞𝙖𝙣𝙎𝙥𝙤𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧 | Aviation Photography for sending this in. Catch the BA B747 fleet on selective Delhi & Mumbai flights in summer 2020, hopefully with a retrojet.

Looking simply stunning James. What great light 😍 Don't forget our poll, closing at 9pm tonight (GMT), to determine which BA livery (since 1974) will feature in a 3 way head to head poll tomorrow against the BEA & BOAC retrojet liveries, to determine the overall winner. #BA100

Now here's a wonderful selection of photos of the BA Landor liveried B747-400 retrojet G-BNLY. Thanks for sharing Tyler. Just over an hour to go before the poll closes on tonight's semifinal. Get voting if you haven't already. #BA100

So there we have it, the BOAC retrojet was your most popular #BA100 livery from a very special year. Thank you everyone for taking part and sharing your great photos. I leave you with my favourite BOAC B747-400 image of the year, kindly shared by Dave Honan Enjoy the retrojets !

To the followers of BA’s retrojets worldwide in 2019, the official news that both the British Airways B747-400 retrojets BOAC (G-BYGC) and Landor (G-BNLY) are to be preserved is hugely significant. All four B747s (including G-CIVW) will need supporting. mediacentre.britishairways.com/news/01122020/…

Just for old time’s sake.

Simply stunning shot of G-BYGC in motion, as she accelerates on her final take-off roll from Cardiff Airport today, by Peter Howlett Thank you so much for sharing it Peter.
