Progressive Viscount...3 pics

Post by Garry Russell »

Progressive were a small taxi airline operating Doves and Herons

They bought this Viscount from Aer Lingus but it remained unclaimed as it had tried to progress too far. The Viscount was repossessed by Aer Lingus after the agreement could not be met

Ah. I don't recall seeing it on the Dove, maybe I missed it.

So this would have been quite a rare beast during its day. :think:

Hi Eddie

Not if you were based in Dublin :lol: ..........it never entered service with Progressive, remained with Aer Lingus until repossessed.

I don't know what livery it was painted in when it went to Airwork at Bournemouth :dunno:
