Malcolm Park Posted November 15 Share Posted November 15 Yes, BOAC Boeing 377 Stratocruiser. Seems that G-ALSA crashed with fatalities at Prestwick in 1954. Can’t find ref to G-ALSO. Perhaps it is Prestwick though, grey sky and flat rural countryside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Park Posted November 15 Share Posted November 15 Actually, I think it is G-ALSD Cassiopeia. The D, badly drawn, looks like an O. Photo of it on the web: London Airport hosted the 1954 Royal Aeronautical Society Garden Party. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
