DH-114?

Think Alderney's a bit short for the Dak, Super VC10. No figures to hand, but Morton's used to fly Daks to GCI and JER, but only Herrings (Mark 1B with riveted undercarriage) into Alderney, until we (BUIA by then) were rudely kicked out by the newly-formed Aurigny in 1969. With the Dak, you would certainly need to do a 3-pointer, not normally performed with pax.

There is always the ex-Faiflight Heron 2D (posing as Morton's G-AOXL, which was a mark 1B) rotting sadly on a stand by the A23 at Croydon Airport...
