Regarding BCAL Timetables:

For such a short-lived carrier, British Caledonian produced a wide array of timetables that can be confusing to organize based on content and market distribution.

AirTimes tries to list timetable publications based on content, followed by series title or intended market or geographic distribution.

Therefore, the title "North America" appears both under Class 1B - Regional System Timetables and Class 2A - Regional Timetables. While the basic title and schedule presentation format are essentially the same, some issues included full systemwide schedules and others included only schedules to/from North America.  Semantics of content? Perhaps.

Many BCAL timetable series can be identified by the ED (Edition) number on the lower rear cover.

Some revision of the current classification may be appropriate.

Your feedback on the AirTimes listing of BCAL timetables is welcomed.
