This BEA "Pionair" wears an early experimental colour scheme with the "Speed key" on its nose, registration on fuselage, titles within the cabin lining and Royal Mail symbol on the rudder. All these features changed for the final scheme - compare with later BEA Pionair images.

Mercury's only Dakota, based at Ringway, awaits passengers for schedule MI100 bound for Sandown (Isle of Wight) at 0845. It will be back in 3 hours 30 minutes and will perform another trip, interspersed with a return flight IOW to Leeds Yeadon, before ending back at Ringway at 2030. A 1500-mile itinerary for the day - not bad for a wartime-built old transport. It is refuelling from a Shell-BP tanker before the underground fuel pipes were commissioned.
