Seen here parked in the then Bay 2 of Prestwick's Main Terminal for an overnight stop before flying transatlantic to the Saunders Aircraft Company at Gimli, Manitoba, for conversion. Became Saunders ST-27 c/n 007 which first flew as C-FCNT with Otonabee Airways before joining Air Labrador.

Still in its Queen's Flight livery, this Heron was loaned to 781 NAS from 24 September 1969 to 8 July 1970 when it went to 60 Squadron, RAF Germany. Sold to Saunders Aircraft Corporation on 20 December 1971 as CF-CNT for conversion to ST-27 (new c/n 27-007), and written off on 25 August 1984.

This DH Heron was a regular sight at Gatwick in the early 70's. It was exported to Canada as C-GCRN in 1974 and broken up soon afterwards. Scanned from a slide,

The De Havilland Heron was used as an Admirals Barge by the Navy with an immaculate paint scheme. Here one approaches Northolt Rwy 08 over a Ford Zephyr and Triumph Spitfire, now Classic Cars,on the Oxford to London road.
