A British Airways 747 taxis past Heathrow Airport's new Terminal 5, which will become home to much of the BA fleet from early next year.

Jointly developed by the BAA and British Airways (BA), T5 is due to open on 27 March 2008.

silicon.com got a behind-the-scenes look at this five-year project.

We also saw how exactly BAA and BA will implement all the technology in T5.
