Owner or Operator Viscount Fleet Lists

Over 400 Owners and Operators have been involved with the Viscount. Some like Capital Airlines and BEA - British European Airways operated many while others like Air Anglia operated only one. Viscounts operated by large airlines who had their aircraft for many years will have painted them in several different versions of their livery.

Owner or Operator

Displayed will be the fleet list for the selected Owner or Operator together with each aircrafts history sorted by the date that the aircraft joined the fleet. NOTE: Some aircraft may have entered the fleet several times and possibly with a different registration. Our information may be incomplete, so any help you can give will be appreciated.
