Props with less than 50 seats
The Cessna 408 might fill some of the gap but only until its in full production. The list price is 5.5 million $ so might not be in the price range for some customers, at least not until a second hand supply might be available.
FlyBe Dash 8s, they have several Heathrow services each day now from Newquay and elsewhere.

Didn't Air Anglia operate the Douglas DC-3 into Heathrow for a while from Humberside/Norwich?
Also just as an aside would Combi ATR's work out on Loganair's network?

'Lease Air', the forerunner of the original Eastern Airways, operated a DC3/C47 out of HUY, at the time I worked for a LGW operator, we had a DC10 with blown tyres on the rugby charters in/out oif CWL, we had a BAC1-11 at LGW sitting around but Ops had gone thru the dimensions and the wheels and jacks wouldn't fit, I only remarked to Ops as a joke that there was a DC3 sitting out on the tarmac, next thing we'd chartered it, if only everybody had had cameras back in those days, a DC3 rescuing a DC10 in CWL!
Yep , Air Angular did operate DC3s through LHR - NWI . Unfortunately missed out , but staff ticket rides on both the Navajos and the later scheduled F27s .
