Dan's def had the 5 baby 1-11's based there
MON/OM had at least 4 maybe 5 of the 720B's by then, but one or two would have been flying in and out of say BHX for instance.
The Brits numbers were dwindling (all jet by 1976) and their 1-11's came along after Courts' collapse.
Likewise Court flew their 1-11's also from BRS BHX CWL NCL, then also from LGW too when they bought Horizon Hols who then dumped their BCAL flying contract.
Britannia flew also from LGW and many other UK regionals with their 737's so obviously the BY 732 fleet was not at LTN all the time.
