Hey all,
I am posting about an incident which happened back in February but has bugged me since. I was at TFS in about mid February of this year and I saw a UA 767 parked at a remote stand. Thought nothing of it has a good stare as it was my first EVER UA!!! EDI being a rubbish airport (yes I will get flamed for that comment :rolleyes: ) I saw on the departure board it was hedad for Orlando at 7:30 am that day. However on the UA website UA don’t fly to the Canaries at all. Was this a charter, seems a strange airline for charter ops or possible diversion. I hope some of you can shed some light on the mystery of the TFS UA 767. 🙂

Looking at Future Pilots photo links, in the third one the UA 777 operated from Orlando INTERNATIONAL (MCO) not Sanford (SFB).

Seems very interesting, on Jetphotos there is also a picture of a North American 767 at TFS that operated from and to New York.
The UA 777 came in from Orlando Sanford and departed back few days later to the same airport.

Cheers 😀 I really thought that it was a B767 but after seeing the pics that you kindly enclosed, that was where it was parked. So I am really exited now!!! Thank you

You must of seen the B777 UA sent to TFS as a special charter back in February on behalf of Audi cars. Why? I haven’t a clue but still it would be a nice sight in TFS :D.
