Handley Page Dart Herald G-APWJ
The British Aircraft Collection’s Herald was built at the Handley Page factory at Radlett, Herts – the tenth Herald 201 off the production line. Its first flight took place on 29 May 1963 and it was delivered to British United (Channel Island) Airways Jersey Airport on 13 June 1963. On 1 November 1968 it was re-registered to British United Airways, and on 20 July 1970 it was re-registered again, this time to British Island Airways, who operated it until January 1980, when it was re-registered to Air UK and based at Norwich. This aircraft flew the last scheduled passenger service of the Herald, from Leeds to Belfast in 1985.
Throughout its entire career the aircraft was used mainly on the short Blackpool, Isle of Man and Channel Island routes, and also routes to France, and during 22 years in service it flew more than 33,000 hours in 44,000 flights, carrying an estimated 2 million passengers a total of more than 6 million miles. By 1985 it was the only Herald being operated by Air UK, all the others having been retired and replaced by Fokker F27 Friendships. Its last revenue flight was on Sunday 30th June 1985, from Leeds to Belfast after which it was donated to the Duxford Aviation Society for preservation and made its final flight from Norwich to Duxford on Sunday 7 July 1985.
