CAA Flying Unit Dove instruments question
I am not sure if this is the right place but we are trying to pin down the first aircraft to land at Abbotsinch when it opened as Glasgow airport (officially 2 May 1966). The first was actually an RAF Pembroke on 26 April which had mistaken Abbotsinch for Renfrew Airport. The archives show that two days later CAA Flying Unit Dove G-ANOV arrived but the question is - as it was presumably testing instruments would it actually have had to land or do overshoots?
Many Thanks
Keith
