Magnet - Boeing B747-100 - BOAC | British Airways - G-AWNA

The aircrafttag magnets have a size of 95mm x 47mm and stick to any magnetic surface. IMPORTANT: USA, Canada and Japan orders will be sent without a magnet on the backside.

G-AWNA was the first Boeing 747 to be taken over by a British airline and the first to be registered in the UK.

It was delivered to British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC) on April 20, 1970. 
It was painted in the original BOAC livery. In 1974, BOAC and British European Airways (BEA) merged to become the current British Airways. Only the BOAC lettering on G-AWNA was replaced with British Airways. Later, the new BA tail colours were applied as a further interim measure before NA was repaint into full BA livery in 1977.
Also in later years G-AWNA got some non standard liveries. At the end of its flying career the red line of the Landor livery was painted over and the letters BOAC were placed above British Airways.
Finally, this unique Boeing 747-100 was retired from service on October 31, 1998.
