Don't think Dan-Air used Ambassadors on this route - too large. But they did use them on a Liverpool - Amsterdam daily schedule for some years. They certainly picked up an extraordinary selection of routes.
When the Ambassador fired up its engines at Liverpool in the morning the exhaust smoke was probably visible from Manchester tower !
I remember when the Doves were withdrawn, the two of them putting on an amazing impromptu display, beating up the airfield with some crazy flying.
Hopefully not with the pax on board
