The Captain, Bob Langley was given a job by Freddie Laker at Southend shortly after this incident and gave sterling service with Air Charter for many years flying B170's DC4's and as I recall
performed the first flight of the Carvair conversion (GANYB) at Southend in the early sixties. He was fondly known as "waffle chops" by ATC as he was very verbose on the RT!!
Those were the days!!
