They also flew summer ABC Transatlantic charters from LGW and MAN to LAX JFK BOS YYZ and YVR.
Configured as Y212. Most charter configured 707s were ca. 189 if I recall correctly. Did any airline cram more PAX in than British Midland?
Remember fondly the days of the BD 707 base at BHX. Crews were a great bunch of people to socialise with!
