Photo Comment

In transitional livery, ex-British Island Airways, still named "Island Entente". BIA had been included in the merger of companies which created Air UK in 1980. The charter operation with 1-11s based at Gatwick separated from Air UK in 1982, and re-formed as British Island once again.
