About us

The Vickers Viscount Network is a Virtual Museum detailing the history of the Vickers-Armstrongs Viscount, its manufacturer, its owners and operators, its crews and passengers, and of course its survivors. The Virtual Museum is the focus for all interested parties in the Viscount to find, or publish, information relating to its general history, and the history of each and every aircraft built.

Also included is information of the activities and locations of the owners of surviving examples, and details of commercial activity associated with the Viscount, like books, collectables, simulators and artefact sales, both past and present.

Vickers Viscount Network is maintained and developed by volunteers and help is needed to complete this comprehensive work. We will be grateful if you are able to provide us with any information and/or photographs that will help us with this task. Also, if you can help us with research like finding contemporary newspaper articles relating to the Viscount, or perhaps researching the files of a company involved with the Viscount, etc. we will be pleased to hear from you.

Our ultimate aim is to have an image of every single aircraft in every livery that it operated, together with images showing significient moments in each aircrafts' life. Any photograph, even a poor quality one, that shows a unique part of an aircrafts' history, is better than not having one at all. This target will probably never be totally fulfilled, but with your help it could come close.
