Invicta only used Brits for cargo ops AFAIK. G-AOVF c.'76-78) and G-ANCF (c.78-80), I think- only ever saw one at Manston. They leased 'NCF when it was still owned by Monarch- ( and still in Monarch c/s) - this was the last Monarch Britannia used largely for the Woomera run. And to my knowledge these were the last aircraft Invicta operated. Sq Ldr Kennard must have been "getting on a bit" by then I suspect having been involved with Air Ferry and Invicta and others before that - an early "serial entrepreneur".
