Prestwick to be service base for A380.

Rumour has it that Virgin Atlantic are to evaluate Prestwick as it’s engineering base for the A380 once it comes into service. More as I find it out.

The plans have been shelved, Prestwick will only be used for training etc. as it is currently by many UK carriers. I believe they are going to still have Air Atlanta there though. Virgins new hangar/base will probably be at Heathrow (Not quite sure where they will find the space though!)
