EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Boeing 737-284 aircraft, registration number SX-BCI, affectionately named "Proteus" as it gracefully sits on the tarmac at London Heathrow Airport in the late 1970s or early 1980s. The Boeing 737-200 series, a short-range, twin-engine, narrow-body jet airliner, was first introduced in 1967 and quickly became a popular choice for airlines around the world due to its efficiency and versatility. Olympic Airlines, the Greek flag carrier, operated this particular Boeing 737-284, which was adorned with the distinctive Proteus livery. Proteus was a mythological Greek sea god known for his ability to change shape and appearance at will, making it an apt name for this shape-shifting aircraft. The photograph captures the essence of aviation during this era, with the Boeing 737-284's sleek design and distinctive markings standing out against the backdrop of the airport's bustling activity. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to experience the excitement and wonder of air travel during the 1980s. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of the incredible advancements in aviation technology and the role that the Boeing 737-284 played in shaping the industry. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of flight and the magic of travel, inviting us to explore new horizons and embark on our own adventures.
