The aircraft involved did not belong to Airtours. It happened years before Airtours even owned an airline. The incident you are referring to happened to British Airtours, the charter airline owned by British Airways.
Humble apologies, I'd assumed wrongly that it would be obvious to anyone reading my post that the only "Airtours" around in 1985 was BA's charter subsidiary.
