Found on You Tube, the latest BA ad featuring 90 years of British Airways history - A beautiful piece of film making!
Also on Youtube are a series of clips about how this was made. The great thing is that the main aircraft are REAL aeroplanes, and although CGI has been used its not noticeable. A great credit to BA!

Wow that was incredible. A well done piece of film making and a salute to the pioneers from the 20th Century.  EDIT: Interesting about the trouble they went to to get things correct for each period. See the making of video: |

A short note about the aircraft. G-EBIR is Shuttleworth Collection's D.H.51, filmed at Old Warden. The Rapide is filmed at Duxford, despite the set dressing resembling Croydon - that's also probably Duxford Aviation Society's VC.10 G-ASCG. The Concorde is Brooklands' example, G-BBDG with a cgid background.

Terrific vid. I wonder if Air NZ/TEAL/NAC could do one like it? Ashvegas' F-27, Ferrymead's Viscount, the Solent, Electra, Dakota at MoTAT... Need a DC-8 or -10, paint a 767 in 80's corporate colours... and bring on the (overweight and behind schedule) Dreamliner...
