No experience flying the Conway. I think our friend 411A can answer better.
All I know, it was an excellent engine, somehow more fuel efficient than JT4A.
BOAC, Lufthansa and Air India were 707 Conway users.
Alitalia was a major user of DC8-40s with Conways. And Canada...

I retired from last flight (747-200) last NOV...
Just a training consultant now, 747 classroom/simulators.
Will gladly ferry 747 or other old jets to/from desert cemeteries.

Will get retrained to fly my little Piper L-21 to scare myself.
Maybe tow gliders, or banners, low level over nude beaches.
I am a licenced bikini inspector, Brazilian rating, night qualified.
And next weekend is Carnaval - from friday night to wednesday morning.

Happy contrails
