First flight was in a DH Dragon Rapide reg unknown from LHR Central over the reservoirs and back for 10 shillings, operator not known but could it have been Oll0y in 1953? But first commercial from LHR southside on Silver City Airways to Nicosia via Tunis and Malta for groundfeeding in 1959. Think the aircraft was a DC6 and seats faced backwards towards the tail.
