On the night of 9-10 March 2019 strong winds associated with Storm Gareth caused two parked Boeing 747-436 aircraft (G-BYGE and G-CIVU) to move. Both aircraft suffered damage to the fuselage as a result of hitting objects. British Airways Boeing 747-436 G-CIVU entered the London Heathrow maintenance facility for repairs; it had most recently operated as Flight BA274 from Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. G-CIVU was back in service on 15 March 2019.
