I agree; Flight One operated this one as well as G-AZHJ. However, Hunting Surveys leased one of them for some survey work, I think in the late 1980s. I used to fly the Huntings Dove and had the added pleasure of a ride in the right seat of Twin Pin ZHJ(?) while on a survey flight around the Home Counties. My ears have only now just about recovered.

As far as I remember, the “Hunting” one got as far as Muscat. Took them about two weeks and 50galls of oil to get there!

Sorry, no photos.
