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? |
Was it flown by an older Gentleman in a red coat and white beard ?

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

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. G-OEDG British Aerospace Jetstream 31 EuroDirect AlainDurand ... https://goo.gl/images/mHUnLA FF |
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! |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brymon_Airways For instance Brymon never served BOH or AMS so the fact that you have suggested it was Brymon is rather irrelevant in this discussion. |
GCurious to hear of the OPs routing in the end. Suspect NQY has better connection options with the LGW link, maybe BA coded flybe and cx ? on a side. Oh how brymon is missed cs |
