The BA 757 retro jet, about to shutdown its engines at gate 11 at EDI , about 40 mins later, it would operate BA1463 as the last BA 757 passenger flight into LHR. The Captain did a full thrust takeoff , and an unrestricted climb. Enroute to LHR we descended to 9000 feet flew over Manchester and took a diversion to overfly Stokesay Castle where the aircraft is named after. After that we flew over Birmingham and then not too long after that , we landed at runway 09L at LHR and received the Water Cannon Salute.

Comments
What a stunning shot of this aircraft before she departs on her final service with BA. Good commentary of the events also. I caught her arriving at LHR from MAN, then a sporty departure for GLA, returning from GLA and then departing for EDI, at each event there were many people at LHR digitally catching the days events.
