Scottish European Airways Hawker Siddeley HS748, Cumbernauld Airport, Scotland, August 1989 

Flew from Bournemouth to Guernsey in one of these operated by Dan Air , 1986. I was 16 and going on hols with my Mum. It was an evening flight, as we approached Guernsey there was a terrible storm and it became quite dark. The plane was being buffed and it was frankly terrifying. We were seated port side, the plane did steep left bank at around 1000 feet and out of the window , through the storm I could see the blazing runway lights at Guernsey. We landed safely and I waited for everyone to leave the plane. The Captain came down the aisle and he was very confident, around 60, and completely unfazed by the tricky landing. I stopped him and asked, can I take a picture of the cockpit ? He smile at me and said, "help yourself" . I went to the cockpit and was left alone in there 😁😅, wouldn't happen now.

I take it that thiswasa training flight into Cumbernaud as I expect no paying pax got on at this facility.

What a lovely surprise to find this video. Took me straight back to my time as a brand new FO with SEA flying FU and also DA. Anybody else around from those times?

Favorite Monty Python line: "Good morning and welcome aboard West Scottish Airways. Our destination is Glasgow; there's no need to panic."
