G-ATDU was built as a Type V.739 c/n 87 with Rolls-Royce Dart 506 engines. Originally built for Misair–Egyptian Airlines and registered as SU-AIE it first flew on January 12, 1956 and was delivered January 1956. In August 1960 the aircraft was sold to British Eagle and registered as G-ATDU. From March 1968 until September 1968 the aircraft was leased to Air France but kept its UK registration. Air France was one of the largest users of the Viscount. In April 1969 British Eagle scrapped the aircraft.
Designed as a result of the UK Brabazon Committee's proposal for post WWII transports, the Viscount was first flown on July 16th, 1948.© Copyright 2003-2010 The Flying Mule, Inc.
