Not long; million years or so! I don't think it is going to worry me though;D ;D ;D ;)

Getting rid of the current Government is more of a priority. 8-) 8-) 8-) ;)

.......there's a blast from the past :o - last experience with that wonderful airline was a landing at Stanstead so hard I thought the gear had been driven up through the wings - horrible.

Oh for the days of BOAC and BEA - the VC10 and the Vanguard, happy indeed 8-) :y

Ah! how about BEAs' Trident?

I don't know when they last flew, but I remember BEA replacing the Vanguards on their Maltese route with Tridents in 1963! 8-) 8-) 8-)

The turbo-prop Vanguards were lovely planes, but there was real excitement when the jet Tridents started! :D :D ;)

As for the RAF Transport Command Comet 4B's, I first flew in one of those in September 1964 and as a kid found them a great aircraft.  The take off especially I will never forget, as in true RAF tradition we sat facing the tail and watched the land disappear behind us as the pilot took us into a steep climb 'like a rocket'  :-* :-* :-* :-*8-) 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-)
