Best Airline I flew with (whilst still in the military)

Looking at the airline announcements thread, the Dandair comment got me to thinking about long lost (but maybe not forgotten) airlines I had the pleasure of flying with whilst still serving.

In my time at that place near Walters Ash, I regularly flew from LHR to Dalcross on good old "Dandair". If I recall it left at about 6.45pm and our office called it the "3 Gin Trip". One on the climb, one one the cruise and one for the drop, (we knew the flight attendants quite well) together with a fresh Scottish salmon evening meal, and proper shortbread.

The run south left about 9am and was blinding breakfast, with even proper fresh tomatoes with our bacon and eggs, non of your plastic stuff for Dandair.

Happy days, BA could really take some lessons.
