I think this would be World, operating from Gatwick to Boston, and then onward to Baltimore, with a DC-10. Like every other former US charter carrier attempt at transatlantic schedules, it didn't last too long.
Partially correct - BOS is the U.S. port I had in mind. Please try again for the airline and equipment.
World Airways did fly DC-10s on scheduled service to LGW; I believe it was direct to Baltimore BWI as some friends of mine took that route once.
