The full route for the Scottish Flyer was Portsmouth-Southend-Luton-East Midlands-Leeds-Teesside-Newcastle-Edinburgh-Aberdeen. It was initially promoted to the press as a BAC111 op (except Portsmouth, obviously) but was flown by Viscounts or 748s. There was also a feeder service from Norwich to EMA. It ran from 20/1/69 until November the same year when it was stopped having lost a shed load of money.
