This Viscount was delivered to BEA in March 1958 as G-AOYN, also flying with Cambrian Airways and British Airways before being retired in April 1980. In February 1981 it was sold to BAF who leased it to a number of operators including the Oasis Oil Company, Occidental Oil, Polar Airways and Capital Airlines (UK). In April 1993 BAF became BWA and the plane was re-registered in October 1994 as G-OPAS for use on a mail contract for Parcel Force . In June 1996 the frame was stored at Southend (SEN) and then scrapped in early 1997. The nose was saved and came to the museum in December 2006.
