"The success of the Viscount and development of small gas-turbine engines made the piston-engined Herald much less attractive than it had been, and the two Australian operators* in particular refused to accept the Herald in this form." (Turbine-Engined Airliners of the World by F.G. Swanborough. Temple Press Books 1962.)
