According to Skyliner Aviation, OO-VLE went to Norwich for part-out/scrapping.

Hi … hadn’t heard of that incident,do you know What actually happened ??
While undergoing going maintenace the main gear retracted. The plane ended up with it’s belly on the ground, and a large crack on the fuselage just behind the main passenger door as well as minor bruises all over the forward fuselage. Why the landing gear retracted is not yet known / announced.
Here’s a photo of the incident.

Surprised to see OO-VLE back in the air. I would have expected it to be parted out following the landing gear mishap at Rotterdam earlier this year.

Hi …. As far as i know this is Privatair’s new c/s and i also found it odd that the ERJ-135ER was on a scheduled flight to somewhere like turkey.

Is the Privatair B757 going onwards to Jet2 at some future date?
Also, surely the EMB145 wouldn’t be going all the way to Turkey?
