Air Ecosse was a Scottish commuter airline based in Aberdeen operating in the late 1970s to mid-1980s. They flew between Aberdeen and cities in northern England, such as Liverpool and Carlisle as well as to Edinburgh and Glasgow.[1] They also carried out mail flights for the Royal Mail. Air Ecosse was a subsidiary of Fairflight Charters based at Biggin Hill. The company was bought out of administration by Peregrine Airways of Aberdeen and the new company became Aberdeen Airways (Callsign: Granite). Aberdeen Airways subsequently also filed for bankruptcy protection, moved to East Midlands (EMA) and finally died.
