BOAC-Cunard Ltd 

 

BOAC-Cunard lettering on a Super VC10

"In 1962, BOAC and Cunard formed BOAC-Cunard Ltd to operate scheduled services to North America, the Caribbean and South America. BOAC provided 70% of the new company's capital and eight Boeing 707s. The independent Cunard Eagle Airways, of which Cunard held a 60% shareholding, provided two more 707s.

BOAC-Cunard leased any spare capacity to BOAC which could use it to supplement the main BOAC fleet at peak demand, and in a reciprocal arrangement BOAC would provide capacity to BOAC-Cunard on some operations when it had a shortfall.

The effect of this arrangement was to remove competition on western routes.[7] The operation was dissolved in 1966."

I was wondering if I can download the Kai Tak airport photo? It's for personal use on my Private Instagram and Facebook page. My dad passed away 2 years ago and He loved airplanes and his office was in the Hong Kong airport before.

Thank you!
