BBC series Buccaneer
There was a series of BBC programmes back in the early 80's called "Buccaneer" which was based on a cargo airline, in fact they used the Redcoat Britannia (and a load of their staff as extras) and made Luton look like somewhere in deepest, darkest.
My true story is of the 95 foot long mast from Europe for a yacht in Antigua, which was too long for the CL44. A good friend of mine came up with the idea of removing a windscreen in a (Cargoman) DC8, loading said piece through the cockpit and then performing the reverse in Antigua for the offload. Took a few days mind, waiting for the glue to dry twice but the job was done!
