British Airways, G-BVVK at Barra Airport (EGPR), 1/72 scale

I am aware that these are models I very recently shared here, but I couldn’t resist. The completion of a new diorama board brings the perfect opportunity for a new photoshoot. Additionally I recently bought a set of chocks, which you can see if you look closely.

Pictured parked on the sand of Eoligarry’s Traigh Mhor beach, is G-BVVK, a De Havilland Canada 6 Twin Otter, of Loganair but in British Airways livery (specifically Chatham Dockyard livery and wearing a One World Alliance decal).

Barra Airport (EGPR) is the only airport in the world where scheduled flights land on a tidal beach. Barra has 3 bi-directional runways on Traigh Mhor beach (07/25, 11/29, 15/33), in a triangle pattern, aircraft can essentially always land into the wind. Loganair operated flights to & from Glasgow are Public Service Obligation “lifeline” flights, and so funded or subsidised by government.

G-BZFP, Flybe (Loganair) at Barra Airport, EGPR, 1/72 scale. by GlasgowModelVehicles

G-BZFP, Flybe (Loganair) at Barra Airport, EGPR, 1/72 scale.

My sixth kit airplane, fourth DHC-6 Twin Otter - 1/72 scale by Revell (Matchbox casting).

G-BZFP is/was a very well travelled plane. Built in 1980, she appears to have flown in Gabon, French Polynesia, USA (Florida, then Hawaii), and returned to Canada where she was painted in British Airways livery prior to delivery to Loganair. Arriving on the 11th of August 2000 at Glasgow, she lasted 15 years with Scotland’s Airline before flying east to Switzerland and her new owners.

Foxtrot Papa is pictured here at Barra Airport, a new diorama made specifically for displaying my plane model fleet.

Loganair began their franchise agreement with FlyBe in 2008, following the end of their agreement with British Airways. This would continue until an allegedly acrimonious split in 2017, leading Loganair to go it alone. FlyBe attempted to retaliate by franchising with Eastern Airlines and competing on Loganair routes, however this failed. 2019 saw rumours of a code sharing agreement, indicating the rift had healed, however FlyBe would not last long. Having exhausted their finances the company would fold in 2020, citing the Covid-19 pandemic as a cause. Loganair swiftly stepped in to take on a number of FlyBe routes.

Having bought the rights, Thyme Opco relaunched FlyBe Limited in 2021. Based at Birmingham Airport, their first flight was from there to Belfast, on the 13th April 2022. They ceased trading on 28th January 2023, having lost an average £5 million per month, and leaving creditors short of £684 million.
