On delivery to Connellan Airways. Converted to Riley Turbo Skyliner in October 1973. Crashed Cairns/YBCS on 23 October 1975

Originally G-ANNO with Vickers-Armstrong/BAC, this 1954 Heron went on to JF and Fairflight before finding its way to Thailand in 2.80. Already wfu by the time of this photo and last reported as a wreck at BKK (strange to see the new code for Don Muang since the new airport opened)

F-OAPN arrives that the Hawker de Havilland hangar for maintenance. The Noumea-based Heron was withdrawn from use in 1971.

Beginning life as Jersey Airlines' "Duchess of Alderney" in 7.54, this Heron became part of the Morton Air Services fleet and in 1966 was leased to Sierra Leone Airways as 9L-LAI. Morton merged into British United in 1968 and the aircraft is seen here after acquisition by Executive Air Engineering. Served Peters Aviation for the rest of the 1970s but ended up with St Lucia Airways from 1980, the fuselage later being sunk as a diving wreck

Spare fuselage for your Heron, sir? The RMAF one was delivered to them in 6.63 as FM-1054 and bought by Prinair in 9.81, being allocated N588PR but only used for spares. The other five in Prinair's multi-colour liveries had at least seen service with them but not surprisingly all were scrapped

Leased from East Coast Airlines in Australia for less than two months.

VH-KAM climbs out on its regular service to Melbourne (YMMB).

Operated by Associated Airlines, the private airline of mining giant BHP. Sold in the US in 1968 as N210FA.
