OUAQUKGF ops do you know any more about that lease- it seemed that the aircraft operated for both Skyways and Autair simultaneously-I think I remember (maybe wrong) it operated things like Luton Blackpool and Blackpool-Jersey flights in summer '68 while also operating for Skyways- did it fly from the grass at Lympne or Lydd for Skyways.

I always felt the Ambassador was a bit underpowered- some very long ground runs if hot and a crosswind at LTN- can't help it didn't help in the Munich accident. Any AS57 drivers out there to comment/prove me wrong.
