Vickers 760D Viscount
Vickers 760D Viscount of Hong Kong Airways, a few months before the airline merged with Cathay Pacific and the Viscounts sold to Malayan Airways.
If the star aircraft is indeed the Viscount in HKA colours, the flight attendent suit is fictitious as are the logo and advertising for "IAL". More on the Discussion tab.
Reg. VR-HFJ Viscount 760D c/n 187 (till 1959; later VR-SEE then 9M-AMS and eventually VR-AAV).
Destroyed by a terrorist bomb at RAF Khormaksar, Aden on 30 June 1967.
The late Viscount's usual capacity was 75 passengers (row of 3+2) but the two 760s built have 40 or 44 seats (as seen here : 2+2) and (underwing) slipper tanks.
