There can be few world-class companies that boast the heritage and traditions inherent in the British Airways brand. Indeed, the company that became British Airways operated the world’s first commercial scheduled airline service in 1919. Based on exclusive posters, photographs and artwork from the company’s archive, the British Airways Colouring Book allows the reader to colour in and put their own stamp on images showing how the whole experience of flying has changed from the early days of aviation through to the present day.
