Photo Comment

Built for Continental Airlines as N254V in 1959 and sold to Channel Airways as G-ATVE in May 1966. Leased to short lived Treffield International between January 1967 and June 1967 when it was repossessed by Channel Airways. Continued to serve with them until withdrawn from use in October 1969 and broken up at Southend in June 1972. The nose was preserved, initially by the Historic Aircraft Museum at Southend and subsequently by various collections in Germany. Still extant at 50.633124N 7.216180E in 2021.
