2008 so far at Newcastle

Hi all,

It’s been a while since I’ve got round to posting some photos, but thought I’d share a few from Newcastle this year so far. Movements wise, things seem to be a lot quiter around NCL than they were last year, with the big two – easyJet and Jet2 – pulling at least 5 aircraft between them since last summer! But on the plus side, there’s obviously been the Emirates coup, Air South West started up just yesterday, Eastern, Flybe, Lufthansa and Cimber have all boosted schedules, and there’s a healthy summer charter program to look forward to…

Excellent pics, and i agree – that RJ is amazing.

Seems we have had quite a few exciting movements in the past week or so – EuroCharter B737-200 G-CEAE, Monarch A300, BA Openskies 752 and the Antonov.

I missed the An-12 yesterday, but yes, the charter program is looking good.

NCL published a new version of the charter timetable on the 28th and it seems as though the Onur Air program has been slimmed down quite substantually, but looking forward to some widebodies, as you say.

Awesome shots from the Local!

Did you catch the AN-12 that was in this morning?

Summer program although smaller than last year could boast some interesting movements

Air Transat are back with an A310, maybe the odd A330

Monarch are back as ever with there A330s

Thomsonfly Have got transfered of my beloved G-THOO and sent her to MAN so we now have a brand spanking new 738.

Thomsonfly Long Hual starting Soon! Be good to see a 767 at NCL

And from the looks of it were getting a hefty amount of flights from Onur Air

Aswell as a few MadDogs operating charters to various destinations!
