  1. Hi Eric. I flew to Australia in 1966 on British Eagle Britannia flight QFEG 172 at the age of 16. We left London on 14/08/1966 and arrived in Melbourne on 16/08/1966. We landed at Abadan in Iran, Colombo Ceylon, Singapore, Darwin then Melbourne. I'd would like to know the aircraft's name and registration, then maybe find a photo of it. Could you help me with the manifest for this trip please? Thank you. Bob
  2. Hello Mike, Thanks for your reply. I publish an occasional 'Eagle Archive News' via the web. It you would like to recieve copies as pdf files then let me have you email address and I will add you name to the list. I can also send previous copies as pdf files. The reason for the the News is to inform people what we hold in the archives. Regards Eric
  3. Hello Guys, thanks for your comments re the greatest UK independent airline of the 50/60s. If you would like to see more about the Eagle Group which includes British Eagle see our archive website britisheagle.net Any comments or pictures about the airline would be of interest. We have a large archive. Regards Eric
  4. Hello Ben, I am new on this site I found it when I was researching our flights to Australia for the £10 pomy flights. I was employed by Eagle in the sixties and run the British Eagle Airlines archives here in the UK. We have a number of passenger manifests which includes the registration of the aircraft. If you are interested and let me have the dates your farther arrive in Australia we may hold the passenger manifest which you might not have and would be interested in a copy.Let me know. Regards Eric
  5. Hello, May I introduce myself. I worked in the UK in aviation since 1961. The airlines that I worked for were British Eagle International Airlines, Seaboard World Airlines Inc. and EL AL Israel Airlines. Served as an avionic tech in each of the airlines.. Although very much retired I run the British Eagle Airline Archives here in the UK. I came across this website as a result of some research for the archives regarding immigrant flights in Britannia aircraft. The fact that Eagle ran many immigrant flights to Australia in the sixties has meant that we now have collected a fair number of Passenger manifest which also give the registration of the aircraft. I am more than willing to pass on this information to relatives. Regards eric
