I’ve just booked a flight to Niederrhein from Stansted with Ryanair next week. I’m flying out a 1600 and returning at 2100. It’s a fact finding mission more than anything. The airport has just finished a brand new terminal and I thought I’d check it out and for £25 inc taxes I could hardly go wrong!
Anyway, I don’t suppose anyone knows what type of aircraft I’ll be on do they? I have an inkling it will be a former Buzz 733 but I’m not sure.

I’m off on Tuesday wannabe pilot. I’ve been on the BAe 146s several times with both Buzz (Ryanair) and Flybe so I’m not too bothered about not flying on one this time.
EGNM, I hope you enjoy your flight next week, I’ve done the BLK run three times now and I love it, it’s certainly different from MAN-LHR!

i’m on a 146 next week on the BLK-STN run going out on Mon, coming back on Weds – finally (fingers xed) a 146!

Yes I think you’re likely to end up on a 733 or a 738. Shame there isn’t much chance of one of the 146’s. What day next week?

They indeed fly ‘300s to Niederrhein. It is quite dead for now, you won’t see a lot. The occaisional private plane and Ryanair. Maybe if you are lucky VBird A320 and a medevac helicopter.
