Aircraft Operational Records
Viscount c/n 435 had a
long and varied career
Records for all 444 aircraft built are available
The story of each Viscount is as varied as the number of aircraft built. Some like G-AOXU c/n 248, and
G-BFZL c/n 435, had long and varied careers. Others like VH-TVG, c/n 84, had loyal careers with only one
owner. Some however had very short careers like AP-AJE, c/n 337, that crashed after only 5 months service.
To retrieve an aircraft's Operational Record enter either its construction number (1-459) or one of the
registrations it used during its life. Note that some registrations were allocated to more than one Viscount
and are marked (*).
