WHBM.
Thanks for the info.
The possible involvement by the GDR government is exactly my point.
The IF600 SXF/MOS with connection MOS/ULN was shown in guides
and their t/t. the IF580 as stated by the CIA was not.
Pan Am Mildenhall flights were charters, and can't really be compared
to the IF580 schedule flight. Charter flights would not have appeared in
PA's scheduled timetable.
Less Hair.
Iraqi HST took 1hr. 55min SXF/LHR without the Corridor.
LOT IL18 took 3hr. 00min SXF/LHR much slower a/c and difficult to
compare with similar a/c such as Vanguard. as BE operated Viscount
on the svc, and it operated via HAJ, and would have used the Corridor.
