G-AMAC (cn 5225) Having just arrived at Newcastle from Southend in the revised company colours for the type, awaiting its first schedule service for the airline. Served with BKS for 7 years before being withdrawn after flying its last schedule service from Belfast to Newcastle 31 Oct 1967. I was lucky enough to flying in this aircraft and others in the fleet all around Europe within the BKS schedule network and the odd charter. |
