Airline: The Inside Story of British Airways

Commissioned to accompany the BBC TV series, it is NOT a definitive history.
While touching on the company's role in the early days of aviation, Airline is largely concerned with recent history (1980’s) - with the postwar forced merger between BEA and BOAC, the move in 1987 from the public to the private sector and the political merging of BA and British Caledonian.
