I never went on a Prop Holiday Flight LOL
But I did do some prop flights (mostly work related)
1974 - in a 115 Sqn Argosy which took us on a Canberra Detachment to St Mawgan - almost faster than by train
1983 - Air Zimbabwe Vickers Viscount after I quit working after 12 months at Thornhill AFB - I ended up travelling with 2 Airwork senior managers trying to convince me to come back
1993 - 2000 Jetstream 31/ATP and ATR whilst working for wastospace - the J31 on trips from Dunsfold to Wet Through and later in my last year with the company it was ATP/ATR from Farnboro to Wart On.
I usually tried hard to sit at the rear to be well away from the prop racket
