The Trident was familiar to many British people from the mid-1960s to the mid-1980s as the airliner was the mainstay of the BEA fl eet, introducing jet travel to many on short and medium-range routes. Coincidentally the Trident played a similar role in the development of jet airline travel to the Chinese public. Despite the close relationship between BEA and the manufacturer it was to prove a troublesome connection, for having settled on a defi nite specifi cation for the aircraft, accommodating approximately 110 passengers with 14,000lb thrust engines, BEA demanded a substantial downsizing that the manufacturers complied with. This smaller aircraft also adopted lower-powered engines and as a result the Trident's sales prospects were crippled as its major competitor was the Boeing 727, which was built to a specifi cation similar to the original size of the Trident. Hawker Siddeley developed the Trident to make it more attractive to world markets, but even so could not overcome the critical disadvantage forced upon the Trident by its initial downsizing. The Trident was however a pioneer. Following a lengthy development programme it became the fi rst airliner to introduce Autoland giving it the facility to land in conditions that kept all other aircraft on the ground.
