Question for the BOAC experts in the group re the first photo in this threat.
The photo shows a BOAC B707 with what appears to be noise suppressors fitted to the engines not unlike the ones fitted to the first first Qantas B707-138s. I was always under the impression that BOAC's B707s were fitted with RR Conways, the same type used on their VC10s. I know that the Conways were very noisy (Hush Power ha ha) but can't remember if they were fitted with noise suppressors. Any thoughts?
