MHJ was the only Dak to wear the full Air Luton livery. I remember being told that the Seahorse logo was designed by the Managing Directors directors daughter.

I never realized the company produced a brochure.

Air Luton had operated a Pa31 G-AYFZ since January 1985. Three Dakotas were obtained to operate Post Office contracts. Services commenced on the Night of the 19Th February 1985 with G-AMRA flying NCL-LPL-NCL and G-AMSV operating LTN-EMA-GLA. Unfortunately, due to poor serviceability, the contracts were suspended a Year later being fully terminated by April 1986 when MPO was impounded at NCL.
Fairoaks based Top Flight took up the aircraft and contracts but did not last long either. The Dakotas all returned to Air Atlantique.
