- G-BYGF was delivered to British Airways new on 17 February 1999 and has operated
with BA since then. In July 2020 BA announced that it would retire all
remaining 747s. The final passenger service for G-BYGF was a repatriation
flight from Larnaca on 9 April 2020. The aircraft then remained at Heathrow until 26
August 2020 when she was flown to Cotswold Airport, Kemble, UK for part-out
and scrap.
This film shows the final ever flight and landing at Kemble for this
magnificent aircraft.

Really sad to see my childhood favorite, the BA 747, getting retired in the most heartbreaking fashion. In my opinion, few can really epitomize British pride and values as the BA Queen has done. Britain and the world will sorely miss her
So sad to see the end of this iconic aircraft. Very hard times for all aviation lovers. 🙁😒😢
Indeed! Well said.
Agreed
What a bloody shame . The 747 is timeless , brought the world closer for many in my view . Hopefully BA will donate one of the fleet to a british aviation related museum for future generations to enjoy.
Feel pretty gutted BA losing the 747s. As a lad spotting at T4, BA had rows of -100 -200 & -400s it just wont be the same airline without them. After taking me to Sydney, New York, Singapore and Moscow, I was planning one final goodbye trip before they were meant to retire . Good luck to all the crews and thank you for your service and happy memories 👍 😢
Agreed. Thanks
Such a sad sight. So many passengers so many miles safely. Unfortunately this has become the sign of the times
Very sad mate , where is it all going to end .Keep safe mate.
So sad to see them scrapped years before their time. Britain is diminished :(
Such beautiful aircraft
0:45 that was the last 747 I flew on, in June 2019. From London to Austin, USA on G-CIVJ. Sad sight 😭
The Queen of the sky forever
Absolutely!!
A really beautiful video. And a piece of history captured too. I couldn’t get to film this aircrafts final departure from Heathrow on that day sadly - but great that you have her final landing.
Thank you mate, much appreciated.
Wow, another Boeing 747-400 scrapped. Sad...Thx for your video.I seen several British Airways A380 stowed at Chateauroux airport during my way on road. In France.
No worries hope you enjoy! Yes lots of 747s at Kemble now.
@@CharlieGolfAviation just sad to see this major airplane leave us. This was the first airplane that i work on. thx, and continue yours videos!
perfect video for a perfect landing, thank you mister. See you.
@@CharlieGolfAviation Rolls Royce 4060 powered?
THATS THE AIRCRAFT I FLEW ON TO LONDON FROM NYC ON THE 27/28 OF AUG😥😥😥😭😭😭
Great video, always a nice touch to add the ATC audio. My only gripe; I wish you’d captured the full approach from turning onto finals all the way down continuously.
Thank you - sadly it was very busy there. I recorded the whole approach but had people’s heads in the recording so decided to edit them out.
Very sad moment but beautiful video
So sad
Excellent film but a very sad situation. I’ve linked your film at the end of my tribute to BYGF on my channel so that hopefully viewers will see her both when she was in commercial use and also see her go to her final destination. Cheers, Steve.
Many thanks Steve, much appreciated
Fantastic video. A great record of the final moments of this iconic aircraft. A nice record for the pilots to keep too.
Many thanks!
After you watch a couple of these you almost imagine you see the plane shrink back a little as the grim reaper tug arrives.
Sad sight seeing them get towed off the runway for the final time
Great work ATC always a bonus sad to see these iconic aircraft ending up this way 😔
Cheers!
Great work! Uploaded my footage earlier!
Yeah I saw mate - looks like you were the other side in the layby. Was it busy?
Charlie Golf Aviation My god yes! It was so busy! I arrived 5 hours before the landing and nearly missed out on a spot, but an hour later it was deserted! It was really weird! It was empty when it arrived! Apart from me and Travelino!
My first time seeing a 747 land at Kemble
They need to save that Boeing 747-400
My favourite 747 ✈️
Incredible capture man. A sad sight
Thanks mate!
Very sad moment :'( Thank you so much upload it with ATC
Thank you too!
Nice video mate , but sad sad times .Liked and subbed ( to be honest thought i all ready had .) Keep safe and keep up the great work .
Thanks very much :)
Great video. Gone before her time as all the 747s are :(
Indeed, very sad :(
Sad moment !!!
Indeed, fewer and fewer 747s in the sky now
Great video of the aircraft's final moments airborne
More aircraft have arrived since, do you know if and when there will be more? I would love to see one land there for myself.
Thanks yes another 3 BA 747s are due
Really great footage - how did you get those air shots? So sad to see all those beautiful planes at Kemble. Thanks for the video - heartbreaking though.
Thank you! Just on the ground at Kemble, nothing special!
Anybody have any idea where the Boac 747 currently is? Saw her depart Heathrow on the day of the summer solistice. Really wish BA would sell some pleasure flights on her before she goes in to the sunset. Id book in a heartbeat
I believe the BOAC one is at Cardiff
Great footage mate so sad these beauties have to go in this way. Looking forward to seeing more on your channel as they retire.
Thanks for watching!
Very sad to see BA stored, but very nice video !! 👍
Thanks for watching!
Sunsets are ment to be this beautiful nice catch
Thanks for watching!
Welcome
Great video, i own one of her flight deck instrument panels ( the overhead battery/apu start module) technically the key/ignition switch module 😉
Very cool!
Amazing video!
Thanks!
Great video as always! 👍👍
Cheers mate 👍
Hello, do you have any idea on the fate of G-BNLY (if you are not aware the G-BYGC BOAC will be transported to St Athan to be kept), delivering the Landor to its fate.
Stopping distance. OMG!
Must have been pretty light!
Nice One!
Thanks!
Very sad 😞😭😘
I saw you I think
Cool! I was the stressed looking parent with two small crazy kids :)
Charlie Golf Aviation yeah it was you with the massive camera lol
@@xslyiix-3242 Ha yes that'll be me
Charlie Golf Aviation lol
Where does the passioner go once they've landed the plane ?
No passengers on board, only the pilots
@@CharlieGolfAviation Yes where to the pilots go ?
Crunch Frebear In a taxi back to Heathrow!
@@CharlieGolfAviation Ok
We will soon be left with boring twin engined aircraft, with little to no personality.
Yeah you're right - they all look the same!
