Intended to provide the first air service between Malta and Gozo, the operation never got off the ground because the promised airstrip on Gozo was never built. Arrived in Malta on 20 June 1969 and departed for good on 12 September 1970, during which period it was operated on ad-hoc charters to nearby destinations. Photo by George Anderson.
