Britain's Shortest Airline - Highland Express
Hello! :D
Today, rather than looking at a plane or an airport, we'll be covering the history of possibly Britain's shortest-lived airline.
While there are plenty of carriers that have been formed, but collapsed into insolvency before they could carry out their first flight, Highland Express actually did succeed in commencing operations, with the premise of delivering services between Scotland and North America in the same vein as Virgin Atlantic.
However, the fiscal limitations of the airline industry, combined with a fickle market, meant that within four months of its start, the airline was gone forever.

Also, I realise that in many shots I incorrectly show certain aircraft or airlines that aren't true to what I'm discussing, but sadly - with the constraints of copyrights and attributions - the number of pictures I can safely use are somewhat limited.
