My first flight was in a machine like this one, owned by the SAS. They had twenty or more of this type in their fleet. «Ragnar Viking» was the first one to land in my hometown, Alta, Norway, in 1963. With that event our airport was officially opened and these planes served our airport until 1970. Then we got the DC9 and the jet era started.

I remember flying in a 240 owned by a short-lived company called "Florida Air" back in the early 80's to Sarasota from Fort Lauderdale. Loved watching the loose rivets dance in the wings and the streaks of leaking oil from the old engines....

Boy, do those Pratt & Whitney R-2800, radial engines have a lovely, orchestra like sound upon takeoff and in flight. Thanks for sharing this!

Flights and times were lovely, I hope times would be as great as in 1992 when people apparently could even get to see the pilots. Thank you for showing us this video. Looks beautiful as a dream.

Thanks Moe! What a great idea it was, to offer us one way on the piston, one way on the turboprop! I believe I was on this flight, as I see myself in the FBO, but not on the airplane. Will have to check my logbooks.
