Thought I might as well revive this thread as I found a small snippet about this gentleman. It's from the recently released '
The Pictorial History of B.O.A.C. and Associated Airlines'.
A new service to South America was also planned and, on the 9th October, BOAC Captain O.P. Jones undertook a survey flight in a Lancastrian (G-AGMG) to Argentina, Chile and Peru in readiness for the new service.
This flight is also mentioned in Heathrow Director's post #2 but it only mentioned the year in which this flight took place.
The book also mentions his inaugural flight to Moscow on which the Soviet Ambassador Mr. Maisky acted as interpreter while over Russia.
