EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the British Aircraft Corporation (BAC) One-Eleven 201AC, registration number G-ASJD, in the colors of City of Edinburgh of Caledonian (Caledonian Airways) shortly after their merger with British United Airways (BUA) in November 1970. The merger, which took effect from September 1971, marked the formation of British Caledonian. The BAC One-Eleven, a short- to medium-range airliner, was a significant addition to Caledonian's fleet, providing an upgrade in both passenger comfort and efficiency. The sleek, modern design of the One-Eleven was a testament to the advanced aeronautical engineering of the time. The aircraft's distinctive livery, featuring the City of Edinburgh crest and Caledonian's "Flying Caledonian" motif, is a striking contrast against the blue sky. The One-Eleven's wings are adorned with the national flags of the United Kingdom and the United States, reflecting the international connections of the airline. As the aviation industry continued to evolve, the merger of Caledonian and BUA allowed for a larger, more robust airline to emerge, capable of competing in the ever-changing landscape of air travel. This photograph captures a moment in history, a symbol of progress and innovation in the realm of aviation transport.
