Apologies for the slight drift, but it is about 1-11's. Whilst watching a tv programme last night there was mention of Mohawk motorbikes from yesteryear. This then dislodged a memory of either seeing or flying on a Mohawk Airlines 1-11 in the USA. Also perhaps Ozark Airlines, or were they just DC-9's ?

Did any UK engineers emigrate out to the States to provide their expertise to the operators of the 1-11's. Or was it just, training in the UK at BAC for the US engineers and that was that ? Any of the old hands remember these things perchance ?
