Loganair is a much smaller outfit now than it was back in the 80’s when you worked there Moondance. I don’t know if you where there when the jet age met them, but that was as big as they got before coming under the British Regional Airlines umbrella.
In those days the fleet included, Islanders, Trislanders, Embraer Bandeirante’s, Shorts 330’s/360’s, Jetstreams, Fokker F27’s ATP’s and briefly the Bae 146. They had their own livery then as well which I used to like as it was Loganair that gave me my forst taste of aviation when a pilot came to my school to give a class talk about his job. He gave the impression that he loved his job and that he loved the company.
I get the feeling Loganair now is trying to get back to the way it was and get back it’s own identity once more. At the moment the fleet comprises of Saab’s Islanders, Twin Otters and Shorts 360’s all flown in BA colours. It would be nice to see those red whiter and black colours back in the skies again. Not to mention Manx, Brymon and all the others that got dipped in the BA corporate vat.
