I am happy to report that my article about Air North’s Hawker Siddeley HS 748 is the cover subject in the April 2017 issue of Airways magazine – complete with a cover photo taken by yours truly! Air North is the last airline worldwide flying the HS 748 in scheduled passenger operations. Two ATR-42 Combi’s are to replace HS 748 flights in the first quarter of this year. Although Air North is keeping the HS 748 for charter and cargo flights, sunset has definitely come for this venerable British propliner. This is a pretty special issue for me. Long time aviation cohort Bill Hough has an article about the Ford Trimotor, featuring gorgeous air-to-air photos from yet another aviation buddy, Sagar Pathak . Find Airways at your local newsstands. Or if they don’t exist anymore (like around where I live), you may purchase on-line directly from Airways or download the app ( iTunes or Google Play ) and purchase the electronic version.
