Scheduled passenger helicopter services between Waterloo and Heathrow began on 25 July 1955. Received from Westland two months earlier, G-ANUK operated the first flight. Pontoons were fitted to the S-55s because of the riverside location of the heliport. Even if all eight trips on a day were sold out, BEA still made a loss of over £300 and the flights were terminated on 31 May 1956. Photo from: Nationaal Archief (Netherlands)

The heliport in Liège was situated on the left bank of the Meuse. OO-SHA was the first passenger helicopter to land here on 13 September 1953. After the termination of Sabena's helicopter services in 1966, the facility remained in occasional use. Photo from: Nationaal Archief (Netherlands)

In addition to six in Europe, Sabena had three S-55s based in the Belgian Congo. OO-CWE was pictured together with OO-CWF in Congo or one of the neighboring countries, wearing the Sabena logo but no titles and an unidentified red badge forward of the tailboom.

Photographers and the mayor of Amsterdam biting the dust as the Sabena chopper comes in at the city's rudimentary heliport. OO-SHA caught a lot of media attention - it landed in London the day before. This flight was carried out at the request of the city of Amsterdam, and Sabena did not envisage services into here.

Opened in 1953, BEA's Waterloo Air Terminal was essentially a check-in facility offering bus transport to Northolt or Heathrow, but helicopters had first landed here on the former Festival of Britain grounds in 1952 and BEA Whirlwinds linked Waterloo to Heathrow for ten months from July 1955. Sabena only undertook a single flight from Brussels in July 1954. Flying time from Brussels was no less than two hours and 48 minutes.
