Do I recall correctly that Autair operated in the 1960s both Dundee to Luton, and also Dundee - Carlisle - Blackpool - Luton, wiyh 748s ?

Interesting to see it was a grass runway then but 748s were also operated into other grass locations. Channel Airways used them into Portsmouth, for example.

BEA/BA at this time also used to do a custom coach service from Edinburgh to Dundee that used to appear in the timetable. They used a decidedly rickety old Bedford coach, about 30 seats, that used to sit outside the old Edinburgh terminal in the evening awaiting the main evening Vanguard from Heathrow.
