Just about to depart Southend for Cardiff-Rhoose and its new owners, Cambrian Airways who re-registered it G-BBMG. Channel Airways had ceased trading in February 1972 and this may be the last fight of an aircraft in their livery. Cambrian was absorbed into British Airways. To Birmingham European/Maersk Air; sold to Nationwide as ZS-OAH in April 1997. WFU at Lanseria in 2003 and broken up late 2005.

slide scan from the NK collection. - Continental Airlines had 15 Viscounts in service, and Channel Airways acquired 11 of them in the years 1966 and 1967; even Continental's colour scheme was adopted. Viscount G-ATUE should serve for the British airline until May 1972, when it was retired at East Midlands. It supplied some spare parts for Alidairs Viscount fleet and was broken up in 1977.

Interior of the forward fuselage section of G-ATVE which was donated to the museum on 8th September 1972 when the aeroplane was scrapped. Departed to Germany after the museum closed in May 1983. Note, some records and publications refer to this fuselage section as G-AVHE but it is clearly G-ATVE by the registration which was painted on both control columns.
