HS 748 15 KB JPEG The Hawker Siddely HS 748 (Formerly Avro 748) seen here at Stornoway were originally acquired by British Airways for their routes in Scotland. They were put into service on the Berlin-Münster routes in 1986 due to over capacity of the Boeing 737. Designed in the 1960s the aircraft was not ideal for the German routes and was replaced by the ATP after only around two years in Berlin.
