Not directly related, but my husband operated the first BA flight back out of KWI once it reopened..think the wreckage of G-AWND was still there.
The OP would enjoy a book called "Beyond The Blue Horizon" by Alexander Frater, about the old Empire boat routes....


"In Beyond The Blue Horizon Alexander Frater reveals and relives the romance and breathtaking excitement of the legendary Imperial Airways Eastbound Empire service – the world’s longest and most adventurous scheduled air route. Written with an infectious passion, this is an extraordinarily original and genre-defining piece of travel writing by one of our most highly respected travel correspondents."
