Yankee Mike, delivered to BEA in 3.58, was the first Viscount to be graced with the superb Manx Airlines colours when leased from BAF between 2.85 and 10.85. Seen here on a fine morning just after pushback from the 'N' stands for her flight to Ronaldsway, the aircraft went to Lineas Aereas Canarias as EC-DYC following the Manx lease. Stored at Los Rodeos airport, Tenerife and moved to a park to be used as a restaurant but scrapped in 1999, although the nose was saved

Registered to Vickers Armstrong as G-ASBM in 7.62, this was the third from last Viscount built and went initially to All Nippon then SAN Ecuador in 1970. First arriving in Colombia in 1975 with TAC (later renamed Aerocesar), she was sold to Intercontinental in 1987. Wfu a couple of months before this shot, the fuselage remains intact at El Dorado in private hands having at one stage served as a police social club. Noted in May 2008; the wings are apparently stored separately

A busy pier on a dull day at MAN with five classic types and an excellent opportunity to compare the noses of the Caravelle and Comet. It is often mentioned that Sud-Est used the Comet nose when designing the SE.210. Indeed there was co-operation leading to the noses of the first two prototypes being direct copies and those thereafter very similar including cockpit layout

This was the sixth from last of the 445 Viscounts built, registered G-ASDT by Vickers for the first flight in 10.63. Delivered to CAAC as B-408 and sold to HAECO as RP-C793 in 7.83, then being prepared for Bouraq. Looking splendid here just before hand-over, but written off after an engine fire on take-off at Banjarmasin on 28.8.92
