The Transatlantic Run

A 6-page sourced companion to the London–New York crossing, the opening routes, and British Airways’ fastest recorded time, with photographs and labelled diagrams.

What’s inside:

• Before scheduled service
• - The flight folder
• - A little less than three and a half hours, beside about eight
• - What those hours bought, and what they cost
• - The last scheduled crossing
• - Credits, licence and sources

Pages: 6 (A4) / 6 (US Letter). Formats: A4 (210 × 297 mm) and US Letter (8.5 × 11 in), both PDFs included in one zip.

Printing: Print at 100% / actual size on A4 or US Letter. Most inside pages use light backgrounds and print well in black and white; the cover is dark, so print that in colour or skip it to save ink.

Every fact is written in our own words and checked against named sources from British Airways, Encyclopaedia Britannica (Scholars), National Museums Scotland and the Science Museum (checked 15 November 2026); the sources are listed on the credits page.

Photographs are free-licensed from Wikimedia Commons (public domain, CC0 or CC BY only), resized with no other changes. CC BY-SA photographs used on the website are not included in this pack. Where labelled diagrams appear, they are simplified teaching diagrams and are not to scale.
