--/---/ORION.

Orion Airways was founded in January 1956. Initially, the company was based at Blackbushe Airport. Operations began in August 1957 with a Vickers Viking. The company carried out national and international charter flights (ad-hoc charter and IT charter) as well as contract services for various British airlines (sub-charter). At the end of 1959, three Vickers Viking. were in use.
On June 1, 1960, the company relocated flight operations and its headquarters to London Gatwick Airport.
In September 1960, the company applied for scheduled flight rights for routes departing from London Gatwick to Le Touquet, Frankfurt and Munich. Scheduled air traffic was to commence on January 1, 1961, but Orion Airways ceased operations on November 1960 for economic reasons and was subsequently liquidated. The two remaining Vikings were added to the Air Safaris fleet.

This page lists all films, TV series, and video games that feature aircraft of Orion Airways (Lease Air Ltd).
