Originally CX-AOU with PLUNA, this Heron was bought by Gulf Aviation in 9.58 and by Channel Airways in 7.69, becoming wfu next year. Seen here after a clear-out of Channel's storage hangar, immediately before scrapping. Note the two ex-East Anglian Flying Services/Channel DH.89A Dragon Rapides at right, G-AEMH and G-AKRN, which were wfu way back in 1960

Starting life as CX-AOV with PLUNA in 3.54 and enjoying long and varied service including Gulf Aviation, this Heron had recently been registered 9Q-CRL when bought by Channel in 6.69. Soon after, they announced a name change to Air England but this was the only a/c painted as such. Used on feeder services SEN-NWI-EMA. To Peters 5.72 then 5B-CCD, returning to Peters and on to Fairflight in 1977. Bought by Sky of Siam 3.80 as HS-EAA and stored at BKK from 1983; wreck said still to be extant around 2000

With the shadow of one of the Comets that was supposed help Channel expand, two of the wfu Golden Viscounts stand forlorn (G-ATVE to the right). Just a month later the airline finally stopped flying altogether, the Viscounts being scrapped later that year.
