Boeing 767-300ER

At it's peak, the 767-300ER was operated in four different variants, from an economy-heavy European domestic configuration, to a Trans-Atlantic, first-class service. This variant is shown in the First Class configuration, with 24 lay-flat beds in First Class, a 24-seat "Dominion Class" in a 2-2-2 configuration, and a 141-seat 2-3-2 coach configuration.

This aircraft, G-BTDD, was built in 1996. It's primary routing was across the Atlantic Ocean to New York, Boston, and Montreal. In the winter months, it served as a destination holiday aircraft, on shorter hauls to the Mediterranean or to far-flung destinations such as Barbados and the Bahamas.

Codesharing with it's Unitedwings partners enabled Empire Airways to reach every corner of the globe, and the 767-300ER was a big part of this reach.

These aircraft were all replaced by 787s starting in 2016, with this airframe, the last in service being retired on July 9th, 2018.

(Is this a BA ripoff? Yes. Is it a shot at BATL? Also yes. Is it all in good fun? I'd like to think so.)

EDITS: Changed the Coat of Arms. Good call on calling me out on that one. Changed the fuselage from plain white to a shade of silver to match the logo on the tail.)



    sir i believe that is the British Airways coat of arms

    It is. Everything else I could find was way too militaristic. And if this is an alternate reality BA, then it makes sense they’d have one just like it.

    I may switch it up, or alter it slightly.

    :/ I mean, why ripoff? If your intention was to not give a **** and make it anyways then i guess its understandable. But why not just try to make something unique? This now makes 3 British carriers on AE that more or less adopt the exact same livery scheme. The logo is fine but even more so, could've been used in a better, unique livery. Overall its more of the same. 6/10.

    one just like it, not a straight up copy.

    Why couldn't you create something original?

    this whole brand gives off mad BOAC vibes tbh

    awesome ^_^

    I feel like a British flag carrier has to have a certain “British”-ness to it. Subtle, understated. No coincidence that all major British airlines look alike on this site.

    translation: british culture is boring hence british carriers can be boring and it'll still be valid, making this and past british carriers on this site top tier
