At the end of May this year, a US Air 330 suffered a hydraulic leak and had to b repaired on the taxiway.

I disagree, as its much better than their previous livery!

Gatwick usually has x2 A330’s operating to PHL and CLT, however, a while ago they had to use a 757 (not sure on which route!) because one of their A330’s needed repairs/maintenance.

They have a 330 down in Germany with a U/S engine so they have had to use a 76 on the route
Keep your eyes peeled later on this year as they are planning to substitute TWO 757’s for the daily 330. The 330’s are having some heavy maintenace checks done on them so they will be short of them for a while!

Yeah I’ve seen nicer on a 7 6. I saw it taking off and had to look again, thought they might have done an extra flight at first until I found out it replaced the 30. Nevermind, one can hope.:rolleyes:
