To say the least, her profile represented the lap of luxury and the "Jet Set" attitude of the people she carried. Thankfully, Boeing stuck with the design and offered the public the 747-800 better known as the '800', so we'll still see the hull around for another 25 years. LOL!
If it ain't a Boeing... I'm not going!
On a side note.. BA offered the next retro-design paintjob, soon to be painted on G-BNLY... the trusty old Landor 'To Fly, To Serve' livery I originally came to love when I was hired 25 years ago. Won't be long before we see her in the skies.
