In addition to trying to beat Lockheed’s new Electra turboprop to market., Bristol was developing a long-range version of the Britannia. “This aims at making it a significant high-speed competitor to U.S. turbojets on the North Atlantic.” UK airline British Overseas Airways Corp. (BOAC) inaugurated the Britannia’s London-New York service at the end of 1957, but the aircraft could not match jet-powered transports such as the Boeing 707. Even with sales to the RAF, just 85 Britannias were built.
