I see from my passenger logbook (OK it's anorak time) that I flew Frankfurt to Stansted on Air UK Flt no UK725 on 5/12/86. It was one of Phileas Fogg's F27 flights which, if I remember correctly, had 4 passengers on it. There was a strong headwind and the captain came back and said words to the effect "it's going to be a long night" and opened a free bar which helped with the drone of the Darts. It actually took 2hrs and 10 minutes, almost exactly twice the average sector time of the .BAe.146s which followed the F27s on the route
