Did Deano Do the Deed ?

Well from my posting of the arrival of a certain FlyBe Dash 8, G-ECOE, at NWI last week for respray back to FlyBe colours, a certain forum mod ‘Deano’ 🙂 hoped he was going to collect said aircraft from Norwich and transport it to Exeter ! As the whole event seemed to be at least 24hrs late ! things may have changed ?? I was there to record the happy event ! Perhaps Deano would like to comment !!! 😉

Would like to tack this photo on as I have, patiently waited, for this aircraft to appear in my lens for some time ! and on this historic FlyBe day at NWI it sneaked in for a visit !

Keith 😉

Dean. So nice to get the facts from a potential PIC, thank you, it’s that old saying about the best layed plans of mice and men !! But hey ! I have pics … You have news …. We have Comms …. Sorted !

Too true 😀

You can snap me on Saturday morning if you are up early enough, arriving into NWI about 08:00 and departing at 08:35. We “should” be on board G-ECOD 😉

Hi Keith

Good catch mate, you are correct, the flight was delayed 24hrs because the respray was a day behind, it took off from NWI last night at 19:30 and arrived into EXT at 20:45, so no it didn’t go to LGW first.
I wasn’t on board unfortunately, I was rostered to do the flight on Tuesday but had the duty changed to a different trip because of this.
For yesterday’s flight we were so short of crews in Exeter we had to gather a crew from somewhere else, on board was a crew from Edinburgh to do the ferry flight across. They called me and asked me to work my day off but I had pre-arrangements and couldn’t do it.

G-JEDP was in from Manchester.

Hope this helps

Dean
