I read about the Martin / Convair a few days back. For some reason it's taken me until now to remember Partnair (Norwegian charter company) Convair 580s operating regularly into Newcastle. I think some of the flights were offshore charters, but pretty sure some of them were longer term subcharters for someone: either Dan-Air or Air UK? Could that be what we are thinking of here?
