LOOK-IN! ✌️

From Spangler Alex Mark Hanson:-

“How about the pop culture mag Look-in featuring not only Bryan Ferry but the early 70’s airline Court Line. Wonder if anyone went on their hols with these colourful jets?”

North London Air Terminal / NLAT on Finchley Road London, Court Line & Court Line Coaches passenger hub in the city for transfer to LTN.

There’s a researcher and sometimes broadcaster on Instagram who’s got in touch. He has a page about north London history, and has shown interest in Court Line’s operations in Swiss Cottage and is preparing a post.

I know there are many here who worked or used the terminal and we have previous posts. Any more photos of you or parents etc there, with coaches, colleagues and any more anecdotes about what you remember from that place and time, would be great as I gather some info and images for him. Cheers! Alex

Tis the season for summer fruits and berries, raspberry ripple ice-cream ~~~ and the flying raspberry, aka the purple people eater, aka the Ribena jet ~~~ HALCYON COVE

this airliner, and her Lilac livery fleet sister Halcyon Bay G-AZEB, were hot and spicy sights at airports and across European and Caribbean skies

scroll through some sizzling scenes including being a stamp for Grenada!

Did you work on or fly on this juicy jet ?

Well, we've had a busy morning!

The cockpit section and centre wing section of the world's only surviving Blackburn Beverley are now reunited with the fuselage (bar a couple of bolts, and we WILL get those in shortly.

More details to follow later.
