I also worked on a Jetstream and a Hughes 500 with Decca Danac which was similar to the Harco.
The Super 1-11 had Harco and I loved it...I only flew it as a First Officer and I remember that some Captains were not to happy with it. I remember you had to remember a particular circuit breaker to punch in and out a few times on the first trip of the day if it was reluctant to wake up...After that it was good as gold!
I never flew the Trident as a First Officer but I flew the Trident 3 as Captain from 1975 till it retired in 1985...36794 in your logbook if you flew with me
