BA unveiled this Jumbo in the BOAC livery on February 18, 2019 as the first of 4 aicraft which are part of the 100th anniversary celebrations of the airline and its predeccessors. It is to be noted that British Airways had already done a quick retro scheme on the basic Landor scheme for the retirement of G-AWNA in 1998, which was the airline's very first 747. The aircraft never flew in that BOAC livery ,and is thus not featured here.
