Handley Page Dart Herald 201 at the Imperial War Museum at IWM Duxford—©2018 Joseph May/Travel for Aircraft
The Handley Page Herald (wait to get to the Dart Herald) was designed in the 1950s with piston engines and meant to replace the Douglas DC-3. Proven success and reliability over piston engines of the Rolls-Royce Dart turboprop engines demanded their installation on the Herald—voilá, the Dart Herald! This Dart Herald is a stretched version possessing an additional 4½ feet to carry 56 passengers instead of the original 47. Stability throughout all speed regimes and exhibiting a great degree of maneuverability with excellent STOL performance made this an attractive aircraft. However, the height of the vertical stabilizer could make ground handling a challenge at times. This airliner is in the colors of Air UK and, along with many others, is a possession of the Duxford Aviation Society’s British Airliner Collection, of which several aircraft are on display at the Imperial War Museum at Duxford (IWM–Duxford).
