May 1, 201412 yr Series of tails of the AirbusX Extended . First is G-BRSA which was destined to be the first of 10 aircraft for British Caledonian ( G-BRSA thru G-BRSJ ) and was painted in BCal livery but was instead taken over by British Airways andrepainted in the Landor livery and re registered G-BUSB thru G-BUSK . All 10 aircraft from the original BCal order flew until recently in BA colours with the CFM powerplant ( the rest of the Airbus fleet are IAE powered ) and served formore than 20 years . Several ( if not all ) of these were given " World " tails and are shown here below . Others may follow ( no promises ) , the main difficulty is finding pictures with a high ( enough ) resolution showing both sidesand rear / underside as most photo's from this era ( late 80's - early 90's ) are either scanned from slides or poor quality to begin with , not surprising as this was long before " digital " cameras were invented . Enlarging isn't anoption as everything becomes pixelated .British Caledonian G-BRSA c/n 006British Airways G-BUSC c/n 008 Sydney 2000 livery . The font used in " Teaming ..." was unable to identify and had to be handdrawn ( still working on it ) .British Airways G-BUSE c/n 017 " Benyhone " livery .British Airways G-BUSG c/n 039 " Sterntaler " livery .British Airways G-BUSH c/n 042 BA " Landor " livery .John
