Following their success with the De Havilland Comet, Dan-Air wanted to expand its services overseas and in 1970 received a permit to fly charters to the USA for an initial period of five years. G-AYSL (construction number 17599) was one the first of two Boeing 707s that Dan-Air bought from Pan American for this purpose and was handed over on 7th January 1971. The aircraft was mainly used on Trans-Atlantic charter flights from Gatwick, but was also used on some of their other densely trafficked inclusive tour routes, particularly around the Mediterranean. G-AYSL was originally built for Pan American World Airways as N721 PA and delivered in October 1959.
