Ex G-BGYM with Air Kent. In 1978 this short-lived little airline provided scheduled air services from Manston Kent Airport which included Brussels, Belgium. In fact I flew from Brussels to Manston with them on this very aircraft, as G-BGYM, on 24 Sep 1979. I was the only passenger on board, and on an industry discount ticket at that! The schedule was discontinued within a few months and the airline ceased operations a little time later. Reg G-BGYM was cancelled 11 Jun 1981. The aircraft was ferried to the USA.
