Doc Stirling – thanks, guess Wg Cdr Morrison was ‘Rtd.’ and working as a charter pilot but keeping the rank as was the norm then.
Do you know if they were registered in Belgium as a ‘flag of convenience’?
seem to recall seeing photos of Ss with G reg.
Cheers

From what I can tell, it was a genuine Belgian Company, operating as a charter airline.

They had originally wanted to use Halifax’s, but G Alington told them the Stirling would be better, from the point fo view of passengers carried and freight/luggage capability.
