Wanted to mark the reason for this article's creation as the first entry into its talk page. The history of the current day British Airways is vast, and has become an extensive part of the main article. I'll be thinning out the History section on the main one, this article is to be used for specifically addressing British Airways matters in a historical light, with greater depth and focus on that particular goal. Hopefully this will be useful. Kyteto ( talk) 11:34, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
Note as this was a copy and paste move it really needs Template:Copied on both this talk page and the British Airways talk page. MilborneOne ( talk) 12:42, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
Just wanted to leave a message that I've more or less completed a massive overhaul on the article. This is now fully developed in my vision of what I intended for this subarticle, and now appropriately embodies the traditional history of British Airways. I hope these efforts help some interested people, and that the article is enjoyed. Kyteto ( talk) 01:45, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
If anybody comes across a usable image of a British Airways McDonnell Douglas DC-10 aircraft, one that can be used in the article, I would much appreciate the inclusion of it here, I feel that it is a noteworthy and fairly iconic plane for BA, not to mention a unique sight these days. I was unable to find any with a sufficiently open licience for usage in my search. So keep your eyes open for one please, it really does deserve an image with the amount of passing mentions it already has throughout the article. Kyteto ( talk) 17:57, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
Any reason why we have a section on the latest industrial dispute, I suggest it should be removed as NOTNEWS. The company has been involved in many industrial disputes in its history none end up being notable in the history of the company. MilborneOne ( talk) 20:13, 16 December 2009 (UTC)
