Photo Comment

"Lady Di" graced the skies of western Canada from July 1983 until February 1985. Delivered to British European Airways December 1957 as G-AOYH, British Air Ferries was the last operator before coming to Canada, hence the color scheme. Returned to the UK as G-BNAA for Euroair for a short time before going back to BAF in August 1985. They withdrew the airplane in July 1987 and while stored at Southend, it was broken up in 1991.
