         Following the immense success of the Vickers Viscount, the World’s first turboprop airliner, Vickers embarked upon a
larger, even more economical successor, the Vickers Vanguard.  Whilst it did not achieve the same success in terms of sales
as its older sister, it is, perhaps, worth recording in words and pictures, as much of its operational life as possible.
         Hence this web-site.
         The images reproduced here have been scanned from my own collection and the photo collections of many aircraft
enthusiasts in many countries.  If you would like to contribute any information, or images, especially of those aircraft or liveries
missing from the various pages, it would be most welcome.  Full accreditation would be given below any image and on the
Contributors Page, which also contains Contributors Photo Galleries.   The web-site is strictly non-commercial -  images are not
available for sale.
          The information on this web-site has been gathered from various sources, e.g. magazines, books, personal records, etc.,
and I am indebted to Jack Stephens and Terry Baker in Canada, and Richard Church, Garry Russell and researchers of Vickers
Viscount.net for much information and encouragement.  Clarification of some conflicting information would be most welcome.
