evansb,

That brought back great memories - I was going to say 'Empress' for sure!#
My old man took me onboard a CP Air stretch 8 one day and they looked so long until the 74 dwarfed them.
The LGW pic - beyond the Airtours Comet - is that the old Midland colour scheme and a Donaldson Brit? Don't thinks it's Donaldson....Lloyd?? I give up!

I must get a scanner - think I have a Sterling DC-6 pic from those days and a bit topical with their sad demise.

More to the list:
Kar Air
What was the shortlived outfit that took over the Ambassador 73's?
Saturn
Capitol
TIA
Seaboard World
Flying Tigers
SAM - DC-6's and SE.210's at Gatwick

I think I now have more photos of airlines that have gone than are still operating
