G-APHX (cn 507) Flight One Ltd was a charter and survey company that existed briefly during the ‘70s & early ‘80s at Staverton. It operated Twin Pioneers G-AYFA, G-APHX and G-APHY which it bough from the short-lived JF Airlines of Portsmouth, as well as LN-BFK from Fjelfly and G-BBVF. Most were cannibalised to keep G-BBVF flying. G-APHX (built Oct 57) is seen here outside the company hangar in the evening after the 1974 Staverton air show – it was to remain rotting here at least until 1978. |

XL993 (cn 528) Nice to catch this superb exhibit in the sunshine outdoors. Built as a CC.1 and one of 39 Twin Pins which served with six RAF squadrons in the transport, supply dropping, photo survey and casualty evacuation roles (and even as a light bomber). Saw widespread active service in Aden from delivery to 78 Sqdn in 1958 till 1966 when she returned to the UK and now housed as part of the National Cold War Exhibition at Cosford |

G-BBVF (cn 558) Flight One Ltd was a company that operated Twin Pioneers from Staverton during the early seventies for charter and survey work. They had acquired the aircraft from Portsmouth-based JF Airlines and from the Norwegian operator Fjelfly. A certain amount of robbing went on to keep them airworthy; G-BBVF was the one that (from memory) stayed in service the longest. LN-BFK & G-APHY in the background here would never fly again.
