7. Now it's 1969 and you are in Montevideo. You are off to London in first class on board a flight that only operates once a week with this service making four stops en route. Name the airline, all four stops in order and the equipment.
From the days when Uruguay was a significant trading partner with Britain - coal in, beef out was the tradition, but there was a lot more.

British United VC-10, which had started at Santiago and Buenos Aires, hopped over the River Plate (like Short flying boats once did) to Montevideo, then Sao Paolo, Rio, Las Palmas and Lisbon, to London gatwick.
