Virgin Group Staff Celebrate Milestone Arrival at Heathrow with a Playful Concorde Hijack
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by Victor Crawshaw, we are transported back to the exciting era of the 1990s when Virgin Airways made its grand entrance into the aviation industry. On July 1st, 1991, as the first-ever Virgin Airways flight touched down at London's Heathrow Airport, an audacious act of celebration unfolded. The image showcases a group of mischievous Virgin Group staff members playfully hijacking the iconic British Airways Concorde model that proudly stood at the entrance to a tunnel. With their infectious enthusiasm and quick thinking, they ingeniously transformed its livery from British Airways' colors to proudly display "Virgi". This cheeky gesture not only symbolized Virgin's bold entry into supersonic transport but also highlighted their determination to challenge established norms within the industry. The photograph perfectly captures both the spirit of camaraderie among Virgin employees and their irreverent approach towards traditional advertising methods. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints, it becomes evident that this moment was more than just a playful prank; it represented Richard Branson's visionary leadership style and his commitment to disrupting conventional business practices. Decades later, this image serves as a testament to how one company dared to dream big and revolutionize air travel forever. It encapsulates an important chapter in aviation history where innovation met rebellion - all through Victor Crawshaw's lens.
