I am so priviledged to be still living under their flight paths in 2015 remembering Concorde blasting over my house and watching it banking on my road always left me speechless on every ocassion kindly taken over by the A380. As did when she landed on either 27L and 27R I will intend on moving closer to Heathrow and not further away as I believe that this airport should be called "Harvir' Heathrow" after me.

Never did get to see a Concorde unfortunately, I did however hear their sonic boom occasionally when I lived in the South-West of Ireland. As for that old British Airways livery, I don't know if you're aware of this, but to celebrate their centenary this year they retro painted some of their 747-400's. Here's a link to a video, hope it's useful to you (mind your volume as the noise from the wind is quite intense!). kzitem.info/news/bejne/qmaFtIKMaZOfm6g

BA's A320 aside, the only aircraft "relic" still flying today, out of this 1989 Heathrow hodge-podge, is probably the Tu-154, but it would no longer be in Malev's livery. Possibly a couple of these 737-300s too. But that would be it.

Patrick what a pleasure to see the golden old timers in action in this superb video. The action gives me goosebumps when we both young especially the picture of the Concorde seen both in action at Charles de Gaulle and Toronto Pearson my home town. The last flight we are as a family was on a Tristar to Charles de Gaulle in 1983 it has been so many years since I have been on a flight. Nothing like the oldies good solid metal made to last!! Patrick have a great week and weekend mate catch you on the next flight!!

Fun fact: The reason why you don't see any United, Delta, or American Airlines Aircraft is because the Bermuda II Treaty didn't allow them to operate US flights to Heathrow, only British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, Pan Am, and TWA could do it. AA and United would enter the market in 1991 after buying the rights from Pan Am and TWA, while Delta would not show up until around 2008 when the Open Skies treaty came in

9:39 JAT Yugoslav Airlines, nowadays renamed to AirSERBIA. Then at 11:11 we have two JAT planes in same time in London, a B727 and a B737. That company came to be for most 1970s and 1980s the 9th airline in Europe in size, destinations, fleet and quality, just behind the major airliners. JAT in 1989 had regular scheduled flights with its DC10s to Sydney, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Beijing, Delhy, Johanesbourgh, Adis Abeba, Harare, New York, Chicago, Toronto and Montreal. Pretty impessive seen from nowadays. It was something sort of world-wide "neutral world airline" (not American-allied, but neither Soviet-allied). When Yugoslav wars started in early 1990s, sanctions were imposed prohibiting Yugoslav airlines to fly internationally, and those sanctions took place for most of 1990s and literally killed JATs intercontinental routes. Its place in world was mostly taken by Turkish Airlines while JAT changed its name to AirSERBIA and is just now retaking its position as intercontinental carrier with the introduction of A330 and its New York route.
