EDITORS COMMENTS
Touchdown for the last time! This print captures the historic moment when Northeasts former BOAC Bristol Britannia 102 G-ANBK gracefully landed at Newcastle Airport. The year was 1971, and this iconic aircraft had served its purpose in the skies, marking an end to an era of aviation excellence. With its sleek design and powerful engines, the Britannia 102 symbolized the epitome of aerospace innovation during the 1970s. As it touched down on that fateful day, one could almost hear a collective sigh from aviation enthusiasts who witnessed this bittersweet farewell. Sadly, this majestic airliner met its final fate just a few months later in March 1972 when it was dismantled at Newcastle Airport. However, through this stunning photograph by NCJ from Memory Lane Prints, we can forever cherish and remember its legacy. The image showcases not only the beauty of flight but also highlights Newcastle Airport's significance as a hub for air travel during that time. It serves as a reminder of how airports are more than mere transportation hubs; they are gateways to adventure and new horizons. Let this photograph transport you back to an era where business travel took flight with elegance and style. Relive those moments when flying was truly an experience worth celebrating.
