Classic…

colors that is!

I attended the GA expo at Booker a few weeks ago on a work related trip, and lo and behold found this Piper in company with the British Airways aero club. I had no idea that a currently flying aircraft flew these old, historic colors…

Found this after a quick search.

“This aircraft, which is ex-G-BSSX, has been painted in a special scheme to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Airways Aero Club, the forerunner of the current British Airways Flying Club. The right hand side has been painted in c.1960 British European Airways (BEA) colours, and the left hand side in c.1960 British Overseas Airways Corporation colours”
