Are they gearing up for fleet expansion or fleet renewal?
Having acquired some ex-USA based JS41s, they have had a DH8C on demo to them recently, & I understand they also have an AT45 on demo today, routing (as did the Dash 8) HUY-ABZ-HUY. Believe a CRJ9 was also demo’d to them at HUY previously.
So bigger plans afoot (eg. Europe routes??)

Yes, G-MAJP / T / U / V are all flying around in the basic livery of their previous owners

One of the Ex US-Airways JS41’s was parked up at Humberside this morning (G-MAJV?), still in its original black and grey US colourscheme, but with the name and flag scrubbed out…and the new registration look like it has been applied with gaffer tape

Eastern said some time ago that they were expecting a fifth SAAB 2000 / S20 / SB20, but as yet nothing further has materialised. I’m trying to get confirmation of their proposed equipment plans.

😮 And here’s me thinking you lot were experts on aviation! :p
Jethro any ideas re the Saab 2000s, you have one as due, but has been “due” for a while now.
Oops, sorry, SB20 😉

Have they got anymore Saab 2000 on there way?

Aerospatiale/Alenia ATR 42-500
Official IATA code AT5
Official ICAO code AT45
There we go then. Never dealt with it in that format. The Dash 8 I was happy with in that format LOL, so that should have been my clue.

WHAT is an AT45, do you mean ATR-42-500????? I don’t get it, I’ve never seen it designated like that before, has that come from the back of an airport schedule?
