I worked for Air Ecosse from 1980 to 1983. At one point, we were the largest Bandeirante operator outside of Brazil. It’s some time ago now, but our engineering base at Dyce, used to undertake work on Bandits operated by other airlines as well as our own machines. We had two Twin Otters in the fleet, and a leased Herald. Air Ecosse was owned by a company called Fairflight based at Biggin Hill, this gave AE access to a Learjet, and further Bandeirantes as required. The highly lucrative Royal Mail Datapost flights, operated at night, covered routes spanning the UK and Ireland. Those Bandeirantes were hard working and reliable pieces of kit, with an excellent despatch record. The Otters were virtually indestructible, which was just as well considering some of the airfields they served. I did once travel from LTN (where I was based) to ABZ, on a Twin Otter, it was a long flight compared to a Bandit, and was rarely used on that route…..thank goodness. We did operate a Bandit, that was painted into the bright red and yellow Datapost livery, it was appropriately registered G-POST, there was also G-MAIL, but I can’t remember wether or not it wore the same livery.
