The Dan Air service was twice daily Monday-Friday BOH-NCL -BOH Via BHX & MAN M/W/FRI and at one time via CWL & LPL Tue/Thu all with 48 pax HS748. At CWL and BHX only one engine was shut down to on/off load pax... Very quick turn arounds! The route operated through the seventies until mid eighties. Latterly with Twin Otter, then post Dan Air with Metropolitan SD330. The Dan Air Nord 262 was MAN based I believe - G-AYFR.

The predecessor to Flybe on the South Coast trunk route was BCAL with a daily BA.111-200 on the SOU-GLA route which operated for many years in the middle of the afternoon.
