182 TWIN PIONEER SKI-LIFT Britain's S.T.O.L. at Work in Swiss Airline Service AS we recorded in our January 25 issue, the Scottish Aviation Twin Pioneer, complete with its recently awarded certificate of airworthi- ness, is now in scheduled passenger service with Swissair. The particular machine, registered G-AOEO, is seen here against the spectacular background of St Moritz, where it undertook trials before going into operation. In the picture above it is showing off its renowned take-off a-iliry at the small St. Moritz airfield. The aircraft has been chartered by Swissair from its makers for the two best months of the ski-ing season. It will operate, on a thrice- weekly basis, a regular "ski-lift" service from Zurich to Davos, St. Moritz, La Chaux-de- Fonds and Geneva. If the Twin Pioneer fulfils Swissair's expec- tations, as we have no doubt it will, it is more (has litelj that the airline will place an order.
