		British Airways fleet of Boeing 747-400s is still relatively young, however speculation still surrounds the issue of the carrier's replacement plans for the aircraft.

		BUA's long-haul type at this time was the DC-6 and turboprop Bristol Britannia so the newly designed VC-10 was an excellent replacement type for the routes BUA hoped to win.

		A year ago, when British United Airways (BUA) took delivery of the BAC One-Eleven, 50 representatives of the travel media gathered at Gatwick airport for a flight to Genoa, where Laker, then BUA's managing director, provided refreshment at the best hotel in town.
		Setting his sights on greater things, Laker after his experience with BUA has no doubt that he needs to acquire three of the new BAC One-Eleven Series 300 airliners as the nucleus of a modern fleet of state-of-the-art, short-haul jet-transports.
		Now Sir Freddie is to take the British Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) and the DTI to court, hoping to show that their opposition breaches Article 85 of the Treaty of Rome - the founding document of the European Economic Community (EEC) - which he claims forbids anti-competitive agreements.

		WASHINGTON — Terrorism concerns prompted British Airways on Friday to cancel flights to the United States and Saudi Arabia, continuing an air security crackdown that has disrupted about a dozen international flights.
		An American official said the cancellation of the British Airways flights was not in response to U.S. safety concerns, but rather was prompted by the refusal of British pilots to fly with armed marshals on board.
		Some U.S. intelligence analysts believe this may be deliberate deception because Air France and British Airways have counterterrorism policies that are as strict as those in the United States.
