de Havilland agent in Uruguay 1957-1962

Long shot.

We lived in Montevideo when I was 2-6 years old and during that time I have vague memories of a flight in a smallish plane, being fascinated by having to walk uphill to the seats (presumably a tail dragger), and watching the propeller(s) going round. My mother thinks it might have been a pleasure flight in a de Havilland plane flown by a de H agent possibly called Sandy.

During our time there we also had a flight back to UK in a de H Comet 4 with wing tanks, and I would like to know if this could have been direct from Carrasco (Montevideo) Airport.

Being blessed (or cursed!) with Insatiable Curiosity, I would love to hear from anyone who might be able to identify the agent and possibly the type of plane (presumably de H; there would have been at least five people on board.
