Titan BAe 146 at LHR!

Hi all,

Whilst on the staff bus back to the car park at work earlier this evening (approx 17.00hrs!), I saw a Titan Airways BAe 146 lining up and taking off on 27L…does anyone have any ideas who it was operating for and where it was heading?

It arrived from Amsterdam, and, when you saw it, it was departing to Stansted. No idea who it was operating for, however.

It’s based at STN, so that leg would be nothing more than a positioning flight.

Could be flying for almost anybody on an AMS-LHR route though. Might even be a private charter.

Apparantly BA are frequent charterers of the Titan 146’s for use from LCY when they require extra capacity.

Well that is who I instinctively thought that it might be operating for Newforest, seeing as they used Titan’s aircraft during both strike periods, but I was just curious to know this time round thats all.

Interesting, can’t find any mention of it in my searches. Methinks you need to make some phone calls tomorrow!:)
