1960: A Majestic Arrival - Boeing 707-436 G-APFB of BOAC at London Airport Date: November 1960 This photograph depicts the elegant Boeing 707-436, registration G-APFB, as it gracefully touches down at London Airport in November 1960. The Boeing 707, a revolutionary aircraft for its time, made its first commercial flight in 1958 and quickly became a symbol of progress and innovation in the world of aviation. The Boeing 707-436 was an extended-range variant of the original 707 model, capable of longer flights and greater passenger capacity. This particular aircraft, operated by British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC), was one of the many 707s that connected the United Kingdom with destinations around the globe. The image captures the essence of an era when air travel was a truly special experience. The Boeing 707, with its sleek design and advanced technology, represented the pinnacle of aviation achievement. The passengers on board G-APFB would have been treated to unparalleled comfort and convenience as they journeyed to their destinations. London Airport, now known as Heathrow Airport, was a hub for international travel during the 1960s. The airport's runways and terminals bustled with activity, as planes from all corners of the world arrived and departed, carrying people and goods across continents. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of aviation and the role that the Boeing 707 played in shaping the way we travel today. It is a reminder of a time when air travel was a truly magical experience, filled with excitement and wonder. This image is available as a high-quality print from Mary Evans Prints Online. It is a must-have for aviation enthusiasts, historians, and anyone who appreciates the beauty and history of flight.
