Hello, A bit of nostalgia tonight. I actually had no plans to write but while sorting a box I found this, and just thought you might enjoy seeing it. The Miniature Sheet, SG2289, was issued with the 2002 "50 Years of Jet Travel" commemorative issue. I also found the presentation pack and read with quiet reserve the cover details. Of course I am totally biased, I know that, said with a smile, and some of my good friends did work with BOAC but we really only think of BEA as THE airline back in those days :-)…. and yes I do know that it was BOAC who flew the first commercial passenger jet, the Comet of course, in 1952.
Stamps are so much fun and so educational #128578;
Am flying tomorrow so will be away for a week. Enjoy your aerophilately
