Vickers Viscount
Vickers Viscount adalah sebuah pesawat terbang penumpang sipil (airliner) dengan empat mesin baling-baling yang diperkenalkan pada tahun 1953 oleh Vickers-Armstrongs, dan merupakan pesawat pertama macam ini yang masuk dinas pelayanan untuk pertama kalinya di dunia.

Pesawat bermesin turboprop ini lalu kelak akan menjadi salah satu yang paling sukses sebagai pesawat angkutan pasca Perang Dunia II, dengan 445 jumlah yang dibangun.

Pesawat ini benar-benar disukai oleh penumpang, sebab tidak berisik, bebas getaran, dan mempunyai jendela yang jauh lebih besar daripada yang ditemukan di pesawat penumpang yang lebih modern.

Di Indonesia pesawat ini digunakan sampai dasawarsa 1990-an oleh Bouraq dan Mandala Airlines.
