Now here is something you don't get at airshows these days! There is no recollection of this flypast anywhere on the internet, so I guess this is the first... The aircraft itself was delivered in March '68 to BOAC, later transferred to British Airways before being retired in 1980. One year later the RAF bought her but she remained in storage for 10 years. Following the decade, she underwent a 3 year transition from a passenger aircraft to Air-Air Refuelling (AAR) aircraft. Became operational in 1995 until being retired in 2013.
