Originally with National and then Air Manila as a passenger aircraft, this Electra owes its colour scheme to the previous operator, Iscargo. While flying for TPI as N4465F on 14.7.90, made emergency landing at Aruba with no brakes, 10deg flaps and limited flight controls after two propellers separated and severely damaged the airframe. Broken up there a few months later

Beginning life as Jersey Airlines' "Duchess of Alderney" in 7.54, this Heron became part of the Morton Air Services fleet and in 1966 was leased to Sierra Leone Airways as 9L-LAI. Morton merged into British United in 1968 and the aircraft is seen here after acquisition by Executive Air Engineering. Served Peters Aviation for the rest of the 1970s but ended up with St Lucia Airways from 1980, the fuselage later being sunk as a diving wreck

Flying on the spacious IL-86 was always a pleasure. Boarding is through a baggage storage area and up a staircase to the cabin floor. This one was delivered to China in 1993 and sold to Kras Air 10 years later. Stored at DME after use by Tatarstan and Kazan, still in basic CXJ colours, but scrapped 2013
