I was at school near LBA in ‘73 when my dad was promoted & the rest of the family moved to Glasgow.
Pater busy , Mater looking after wee sister?
You can fly home Dan Air!
As a kid fascinated with aircraft who hung around LBA every weekend , it was great news-tho’ having to travel as a ‘UM’ miffed me somewhat!
Many a year ago but I’m convinced it was Dan Air Skyways , with the ‘Skyways’ part always on my ticket , announced for boarding etc.
The paint scheme sounds as I recollect it.
Always a ‘748 , I was sometimes the only passenger , but one time the aircraft went ‘tech’ & I travelled alone on a ‘111!!
Great excitement , as ‘111s were rare at LBA at that time.
Aer Lingus flew one every Sunday ( I think ) , but we saw a lot of Viscounts....
