Maureen O'Hara was certainly described as acting as stew when Charles brought the Sandringham over to Europe and they did some local trips.

I wouldn't describe Antilles as being from the USA, they were from the Virgin Islands. The Sandringhams were on the VP- register (I don't think any ever got onto the FAA register).
