Cheerful promotional song too - for hostesses prior to becoming "flight attendants!"

If you flew Gatwick - Glasgow in the mid to late 1960s you were served a very appetising BCal breakfast - somewhat better fare than was available on BEA Vanguards or Tridents at that time.

They didn't fly shuttles to Heathrow an hardly ever went there. Being denied access to LHR was a major factor in their failure
