The 436s probably went to Lax via Jfk and then Hnl, Nandi, to Syd which became a VC10 route in the seventies, I did several.

I recall the 707s having a service eastbound to Tokyo which then went to Hnl and Sfo and return westbound via Hnl and Tokyo.

I think there was a tech stop in Midway or somewhere else.

I don't remeber BOAC flying to Sfo from Lhr in those days.

The Airtours 707s had a service Mauritius to Perth which sometimes had to tech stop in Cocos if I remember correctly.

The airtours 707 crews were BEA crews and separate to BOAC 707 crews - a lot came off the BEA comets.

Some good parties in Le Chaland in those days.
