They got a major contract for one Trident out of West Berlin for a couple of the Trident's years with them, but while this was in progress the second Trident spent one whole summer season AOG at Stansted being robbed for parts to support it due to some issue with their Hawker Siddeley account.


Did the 1E-140 have water injection ?
well CW had their own Mediterranean Holidays brand which offered Canary islands so maybe it was one of their flights?
