I always remember seeing my first carvair BAF in jersey Channel Islands around 72 my family and I was watching aircraft arrive on the other side of the terminal on a country lane when this strange aircraft arrived I knew this well when suddenly we was moved of by a member of the jersey police on a motor bike? Second time saw a carvair flying over Margate beach everyone looking up at this strange plane on its way to manston around76 on charter to invicta later on I was involved in aircraft charter operations got some very interesting material from BAF there Vip herald which you could charter good shots of Mike Keegan sitting down smiling also some interesting directors names one L PIggot OBE also the story of the CL44 WHich they leased from Transmerdrian for the short hop from Southend to Ostend which load factors failed then the gambling rumours of converting the CL44 in to flying casino and flying around the Caribbean ?
