Bac 1 11 500

BAC 1-11 500 with hush kit. Two built. The difference between the 300 and 400 lay in the equipment and The prototype (The One-Eleven prototype, flown by Despite the crash, testing continued and customer confidence remained high. In the 1950s, although the pioneering In 1960 Hunting, under British government pressure, merged with Market research showed the 59-seat BAC 107 was too small, and the design was reworked in 1961, with passenger capacity growing to 80 seats, and BS75s being discarded in favour of On 9 May 1961 the One-Eleven was publicly launched when In May 1963, BAC announced the One-Eleven 300 and 400.

The One-Eleven was one of the most successful British airliner designs, and served until a widespread retirement in the 1990s, which was partly due to the introduction of aircraft noise restrictions in many European nations. Over half of the One-Eleven's sales at launch were to the US. At this point orders slowed to a trickle. As of May 2019, no BAC One-Eleven aircraft remain in service following Northrop-Grumman's retirement of their last aircraft. This gave competing US aircraft (the BEA/British Airways 500 series aircraft (denoted One-Eleven 510ED) varied significantly from other One-Elevens, at BEA's request. The BAC One-Eleven was widely used by civil and military operators. Romania's economy and international position deteriorated to the point where supplies needed for One-Eleven manufacturing slowed to a trickle, with Adopting a new engine would have resolved noise and fuel economy issues. There were two reasons why the production line was kept open for just 35 aircraft delivered over 11 years: first, BAC hoped that Rolls-Royce would develop a quieter and more powerful version of the Spey engine, making possible further One-Eleven developments; second, throughout the early part of the period By 1974, BAC invested significant effort into launching the One-Eleven 700. 56 built. 511 version of the Spey with increased power, allowing more fuel upload and hence longer range. After the One-Eleven's type certificate had been withdrawn, they flew as experimental aircraft in the research and development category.On 6 May 2019 the last aircraft still in service, used by Following the Once in service, the One Eleven found itself in competition with the Several British operators, including Prior to the formation of British Caledonian had begun replacing its One-Elevens with the new In Ireland In April 1966, Romania was a major customer for British-produced One-Elevens, with several large orders in the 1970s. Fitted with more powerful engines (12,550 pounds-force (55.8 kN) Spey 512s); individual customer designations within this series - 86 built. British production continued until 1982. Further orders came from Mohawk, In 1967 a larger 119-seat version was introduced as the One-Eleven 500 (also known as Super One-Eleven).
