Airliner World Magazine April 2024 Edizione posteriore

In April 2024’s jam-packed edition of Airliner World, we celebrate British Airways’ 50th anniversary when we focus exclusively on how BA has navigated its time since the BOAC/BEA merger and what lies ahead for the flag carrier.

David Ransted takes us back in time to uncover the story of MGM Grand Air, while assistant editor Lee Cross visits the British Airliner Collection at the Imperial War Museum, Duxford, and steps aboard the latest addition – a British Aerospace 146.

Back to the present, we look at the introduction of two new aircraft for two airlines – Air India’s Airbus A350 and Transavia’s Airbus A321neo. Chris Frame heads down under to see how Australia’s newest airline, Bonza, is fairing a year after starting operations and editor Thomas Haynes visits the Finnair Flight Academy in Helsinki to find out how the airline trains its pilots to operate safely in some of the harshest flying conditions.
