** Formation and early years - 
 :* Information is given about BOAC (and it is named in full), but there is nothing about BEA; the final paragraph then discusses the merger between BOAC & BEA.

 ::* The final sentence of the first paragraph is unnecessarily vague and might not be verifiable: there is no date of purchase for Concordes, ref 19 confirms "prestige", ref 20 does not appear to confirm anything stated in that sentence; and ref 21 (only the summary is free) dated April 1984 headlines "profit" presummably on the London-Bahrain route. 

 ** Privatisation - 
 ::* There is no verification that the initial share issue was 11 times oversubscribed.
