Dan Air was a great airline. I used to fly Belfast to Newcastle and back once a month for about 2 1/2 years. The cabin crew knew all the regualr travellers and I could squeeze in 6 (free) minature gordons and tonic on the flight to Newcastle. I've actually landed with my drink in my hand because the hostess knew I hadn't finished it lol. The aircraft were all prop jobs so allegedly better at glidng in to land if the engines stopped
One morning the flight from Newcastle landed in fog and the Aldergrove International ground control couldn't find it. It turned out the pilot had put it down on a disused RAF strip about a mile way from the airport. They had to send buses to rescue the passengers. Thankfully I wasn't on that flight
