Sorry this does not answer your question, but wanted an excuse to try posting my first photo on the forum. Hope it turns out!
Anyway, here is G-AMSV at Leicester circa 1985.

Don’t forget G-AMCA, now at the Aviodrome at Leylstad in a hideous (but authentic) orange livery.
How about G-DAKK ? Was that ever Air Antique? If so, it was before my time.

Haven’t done a census for a while. Think SV was retired? I recall as a wee sprog that SV had her port wing replaced in ’85; the original was still in the AA hangar last year.

thinking back one of AA daks went to the gate at either Brize Norton or Lynham

hmm,
G-AMPZ, now in Berlin flying from Templehof,
i flew in this aircraft and then it was sold shortly after and moved to Berlin. A year later i was backpacking around Europe and was in Berlin and it overflew me ,a nice reunion 🙂
G-AMRA, I Think this is still alive and kicking with them and replaced PZ as the historic flight dak.
G-ANAF, Used as a research (?) aircraft for thales.
G-AMSV….still airworthy with AA?
G-AMPY ….still airworthy with AA?
G-AMYJ, Donated to the Yorkshire Air Museum
G-AMPO ….still airworthy with AA?
G-AMHJ, Donated to the Assault Glider Project at Shawbury to display alongside their Airspeed Horsa
Ive got a video of three daks flying in formation, i gues i could post a still or two if anyone is interested?
I think this information is correct albeit incomplete
best regards, steve

I used to work there, but not being a spotter I couldn’t tell one from the other unless they were painted in different colours.

Put “ATLANTIC AIR TRANSPORT LTD” into G-INFO and it will tell you thier current ones, plus a whole lot more.
For past ones, why don’t you write to them?
