www.henrytenby.com Few aircraft are more at home in the harsh arctic and the wilds of Northern Canada than the reliable, rugged Hawker Siddeley HS748. Many of these excellent, British-built propliners served in Canada over the years, as operators found them ideal on short, gravel strips. Their Dart engines boast plenty of power, and their 11000-pound payload is ideal for hauling cargo in Canada's remote North. They can also carry 44-50 passengers in warm comfort and speed. In this program, we join airline videographer Henry Tenby for 86 ear-piercing minutes of HS748 action. Bring your ear defenders and woolies, as we're going on three trips out of Yellowknife with First Air. You'll enjoy time on the flight deck, back in the cargo hold, as well as time in the passenger cabin, enjoying life on the HS748 as she earns her keep. We'll even help the locals unload hand-balmed cargo on arrival at Spence Bay. This program features lots of ear-splitting exterior footage showing HS748s at work with First Air and other operators as well, including Air North, Air Creebec, and Calm Air. High fuel prices are now bringing the days of HS748 operations to an end. This program forever preserves the memory of the HS748 in Canada, for generations to come!

Copa Airlines
Fue fundada en 1947 bajo el nombre Compañía Panameña de Aviación. Inició vuelos domésticos a 3 ciudades de Panamá utilizando aviones Douglas DC-4. En 1960 amplió a 3 las frecuencias semanales a las ciudades de San José, Kingston, Barranquilla y Medellín, gracias a la incorporación de 1 avión AVRO 748 y 1 ELECTRA 188. Hacia la década de 1970 decide retirarse del mercado doméstico, dedicándose únicamente a operar destinos internacionales. En 1980, incorpora 1 avión Boeing 737-100, ampliando sus destinos a Cartagena en Colombia, Puerto Príncipe en Haití, Santo Domingo, San Juan en Puerto Rico y Miami en los Estados Unidos. En la decada de los 90, amplía su cobertura internacional con vuelos a México, Santiago de Chile, Cali, Bogotá, Montego Bay, Quito, Guayaquil, Lima, Buenos Aires y La Habana. En el 1998 la empresa Continental Airlines compró el 49% de las acciones de Copa Airlines. A partir de esta compra, Copa Airlines y Continental Airlines iniciaron una alianza que permitió a Copa entrar en el programa de viajeros frecuentes OnePass de Continental Airlines y, al mismo tiempo, aprovechar la relación de Continental con Boeing para la adquisición de nuevas aeronaves. Hacia comienzos de 2000 incorpora los destinos de Cancún, Orlando, Sao Paulo, Los Angeles y San Andrés. En 2003 recibe el primer Boeing 737-800 Next Generation.

28 April 1995 – A Sri Lanka Air Force HS 748 was hit by an SA-7 missile while on approach to Palaly/KKS/Jaffna.
1 June 2002 – Former South African cricket captain Hansie Cronje's scheduled flight home from Bloemfontein to George had been grounded, so he hitched a ride as the only passenger on a cargo flight in an HS 748. Near George airport, the pilots lost visibility in cloud, and were unable to land, partly due to unserviceable navigational equipment. While circling, the plane crashed into the Outeniqua mountains northeast of the airport. Cronje, aged 32, and the two pilots were killed instantly. An inquest by South Africa's High Court reached the conclusion that "the death of the deceased Wessel Johannes (Hansie) Cronje was brought about by an act or omission prima facie amounting to an offence on the part of pilots." However, with Cronje's involvement in match-fixing, theories that Cronje was murdered on the orders of a cricket betting syndicate have flourished since his death.

BAe/HS 748 AEW
The Hawker Siddeley HS 748 is a medium-sized turboprop airliner originally designed by the British firm Avro in the late 1950s as a replacement for the now-aged DC-3s then in widespread service as feederliners. Avro concentrated on performance, notably for STOL operations, and found a dedicated market. 380 aircraft were built by Hawker Siddeley. A larger development, the BAe ATP, attempted to compete with the de Havilland Canada Dash 8 but saw a limited production run.
Development
Avro 748 Series 1 at Aeroparque Jorge Newbery, Buenos Aires, in 1972]]The original 748 design started in 1958 after the infamous Duncan Sandys 1957 Defence White Paper ended most military manned aircraft development in the UK, and Avro decided to re-enter the civilian market.
The Vickers Viscount had the larger end of the short-haul market neatly wrapped up, so Avro decided to design to a smaller regional airliner powered by two Rolls-Royce Dart turboprop engines and intended to replace the many DC-3 Dakotas that were now reaching the end of their lifespan.
Avro was not the only company to see the potential for a DC-3 replacement, and by this point the Fokker F27 Friendship was well advanced. Avro therefore decided to compete by producing a design with better short-field performance, allowing it to operate from smaller airports and those with rough surfaces.
The first Avro 748 flew from the company's Woodford, Cheshire plant on 24 June 1960, and the two prototypes quickly proved the type's short field performance. 18 Avro 748 Series 1 aircraft were produced, the first for Skyways Coach-Air being delivered in April 1962. However, the majority of the series 1 were delivered to Aerolíneas Argentinas. By this point, Avro's individual identity within the Hawker Siddeley Group had ended and the design became known as the HS 748.
The 748 Series 1 and Series 2 was licence-produced in India by Hindustan Aeronautics as the HAL-748. HAL built 89 aircraft in India, 72 for the Indian Air Force and 17 for the Indian Airlines Corporation.
The ICAO designator as used in flight plans is A748.
Media appearance
The BAe (successor company to Hawker Siddeley) company demonstrator HS 748 appears in the first episode of the 1978 Yorkshire Television TV series The Sandbaggers, where it is used to drop agents into the Kola Peninsula.
