The BAC Three-Eleven was an unbuilt wide-body airliner proposed by the British Aircraft Corporation in 1969 and 1970, after the British government withdrew from the European Airbus programme. It grew out of the earlier Two-Eleven study, a smaller airliner based on the One-Eleven, and was drawn as a One-Eleven doubled in size with two Rolls-Royce RB.211 engines mounted at the rear and seats for up to 245 passengers. BAC asked the Ministry of Technology for launch aid, and British European Airways said it would operate the type, but on 2 December 1970 the government announced it would give no official backing, and BAC shelved the plans in the following year.
