Defunct airline
Back in the mid nineties I was working in Holland and every month had a weekend home in Plymouth.I tried various ways to get their quickly.One small airline I used flew from Schipol to Bournmouth and then changed for Exeter!So it wasn't the quickest way!I think the aircraft were ex RN twin turbos with a pannier underneath for luggage.I was told tha it closed down shortly after my one and only flight with it.Probably 1995.
So can anyone tell me what airline it was please?

It was Eurodirect
It was Eurodirect, I used them myself a few times between BOH - CDG, AMS and BRU. A fleet of Jetstream31 and BAe ATP were used. Sometimes the schedule served both BOH and EXT as a trangle, so dependent on the day, the flight to BOH could route via EXT and vice versa. I remember returning from CDG to BOH several times via EXT, but the outbounds were always direct.

Thanks for the info.I am sure it ceased trading(1995) just after I used them!Plymouth airport no more so its Newquay or Exeter or a long journey on Nat express or stand all the way on the train!!!
Coming from Thailand Schipol and then onto Bristol might be quicker or at least less tiring!

Sounds like Brymon who had a base in Plymouth which sadly is no more.

For instance Brymon never served BOH or AMS so the fact that you have suggested it was Brymon is rather irrelevant in this discussion.
