G-AMPY / KK116 (cn 15124/26569) Beautiful conditions at Coventry for a sad occasion. At the time these passengers aboard this DC-3 were making history as the last to fly on an Air Atlantique Dakota. New European regulations had meant that it was no longer feasible for the company to offer passenger rides. There is talk that a work-round has now been found, but cost is still making it prohibitive to implement. |

G-AMPY / KK116 (cn 15124/26569) G-AMPY Once again Kemble re-lives the past as Julian Firth displays this Air Atlantique veteran at the Battle of Britain air show. The last Dakota to serve with the RAF wore this colour scheme when it was retired from service in Germany and returned here to Kemble in March 1970. Originally a lend-lease C-47, G-AMPY saw service in Burma in 1944, was civilianized for Starways in 1952 and has since served in Jordan, Icelend and the USA as well as with numerous British operators including Intra Airways. |
