Just read this thread and I have started to feel very old indeed.

My first recollection of Dan Air was as an extremely young child watching Avro Yorks bouncing down the runway when landing at Ringway. ( MAN to you younger folk ). Every now and then one would land smoothly, but in general that would bounce once or twice before rolling out to the end of the runway

I assume they were cargo only, but they may have carried passengers as well, however it did put me off flying with them.
