    Poole Flying Boats Celebration (Charity No.1123274) PFBC Archive: Our Charity is committed to developing & maintaining its Public-Access Archive… For the purpose of this website a brief selection of items together with information have been provided where references in blue indicate further material is available. Á Part Twenty: A Behind the Scenes Look at Aquila Airways 1948-58... ‘Aquila Insight’ © PFBC Poole Flying Boats Celebration acknowledges the significant contribution which Aquila Airways paid to the History of the UK’s Flying Boat services during some 10 years of its operations from 18th. May 1948, until 30th. September 1958. Through his entrepreneurial vision & passion for Flying Boats, former RAF Wing Commander - Barry T. Aikman DFC , with the dedication of his airline staff, a marvellous swansong was added to this history during that period when the last vestiges of travel by the glorious Flying Boats were being wound-up across the world, with new airports for landplanes. " The scene is not a major airport, or even a regional one like Hurn (later renamed Bournemouth International Airport), it is Berth 50 in what was known as the Old Docks, Southampton. In the 1950s Aquila Airways occupied part of a new purpose-built Marine Terminal intended for use by BOAC. It was from here that Aquila operated to a number of idyllic destinations. However, my account ( PFBC HLM Norman Hull ) goes back to 1952/3 when only the Madeira service was in operation - this was the service Aquila ‘made its name on’ and a look will be made at an arrival, and then a departure.
