The Hawker Siddeley Trident first took to the skies on this day in 1962. Pictured is British Airways Trident Three G-AYVF (c/n 2325), which entered service with BEA in March 1973. Tell us your Trident memories in the comments 📸: Aviation Image Network/Bailey Collection #avgeek

Inflight service aboard a BOAC VC10 (1964). There was a particular focus on the meals back then, possibly because there was little else for the pax to do. Entertainment consisted of an inflight movie projected on a big screen, plus a few music channels via pneumatic headphones.

Triple 7X took off this morning for a beautiful Valentine’s Day flight. Note the tiny tornadoes below the engines before it rolls.
