The equipment used was "Clipper Constitution" later renamed also this equipment was the one involved in the Tenerife incident .
@n194at@dusairport I flew MAN + IBZ onboard Dan-Air London G-APDL and G-APDB Comet 4 in the 60s and remember it very well.. great days of aviation for me.
@n194at@manairport The Avro 146 a lovely aircraft..I got to fly the Simulator a few times at Woodford both arrivals and departures at LCY.. the 6° glideslope is a game changer.

@BigJetTVLIVE Missing you and GP as for many years I have followed BJTV from the beginning with Johnny and you both became such a big part of my life. I have had a heart and lung procedure myself still in recovery some 7 months on and I feel I understand how it sets you back. Get well soon..
