Upon the demise of Tor-Air, founder & CEO Thure Hultman met a group of shipping concerns who wanted a cargo airline available to them so that they could quickly transport goods around Scandinavia and further. Hultman purchased two former Tor-Air Commandos and obtained an AOC on 30 November 1966 for his new company, Fairline. However business did not fare well and Fairline went bankrupt less than a year later on 3 April 1967.

Fairline's business was taken over by Fred Olsen from 1 April 1967, using his own fleet of Commandos to perform the job.

November 1966 to December 1967

Fairline purchased two former Tor-Air Commandos (three according to our list). From late 1967 when the company went bankrupt, these aircraft stayed for several months on the apron in Malmo with their titles removes.
