BRITISH CALEDONIAN

Country: UK
IATA code : CKT

Here are two bags for the connoisseur. Look, the top text is slightly lower on the second bag than on the first! (Brotchie Bequest and Bradford Hundred)

I once had the pleasure of being upgraded to first class on a British Caledonian flight from London to Dubai in 1984. They gave out very nice Stewart Crystal glasses as a memento and I still use the whisky tumbler that I chose.

   I'm not completely sure of the history of British Caledonian, but I know that it was an independent company that was taken over by British Airways. I have also seen 'Caledonian' aircraft in pseudo-BA livery. Despite the variations in name the logo has remained fairly consistent

The name hints at some sort of association and the logo is similar but I'm not sure how this bag fits into the scheme of things. There must be some anorak expert out there who can enlighten me.
