what is the most common aircraft at your nearest airport??

Closest airport is Liverpool, 737s are the most common aircraft there. Followed by Manchester Airport, I wouldnt like to say, Embraer maybe ??

Closest Airport: Cessna 172’s
Closest Major Airport: DC-9’s

Southampton – its a close call between BAe 146 and Dash8 Q400’s!

the A-310 at Montreal – Mirabel airp. CYMX
.Camaro.

Does this include cessnas, NCL is full of them.

G-WARH if its not on the move at NCL it must have a technical fault or something.

I would say that the erj’s and the Bae 146’s are most common at MAN along with the B757’s.

BigJet!

at liverpool where my nan lives its 737 easy airport
and manchester where my grandparents live id say its 757 but i would like people near manchester to confirm this

so the Boeing 737 is dying out certainly in Europe.

Not in the U.S.

Why where are they going to the scrapyard or something

I apologise for being so vague, but Mark L is spot on, I would think Boeing 737’s all variants probably only make up less than 10% of LHR’s movements now which is amazing when you once consider that nearly all European airlines operated either DC-9/MD-80s or Boeing 737s – Now just a small number operate the 737 – even fewer the MD-80/90. Plus the two busiest airlines into Heathrow BA and BMI (ahhh lovely colour scheme) both operate the A320 – so the Boeing 737 is dying out certainly in Europe.

Gratuitious BMI shot…

Air Wales
ATR ATR-42-300

737s with the major European airlines are nowhere near as popular as they once were. The plane of choice is the Airbus, as has been shown by BA, Air France, Lufthansa etc buying these in bulk.
Its not fair to say that the 737 is just going to dissapear as many carriers still own lots of SH Boeings, but they are being phased out rapidly, for example BA no longer operate the 737 at LHR anymore.
And of course also people like KLM and THY have large 737NG fleets too.

If only they were – I think it is probably Airbus A319/320/321 that are going to be the most common operated by every EU Carrier plus BA – Boeing 737s are on their way out and rapidly:D

😀 peter.

I like to think of NCL as being my local airport, but in actual fact MME is. They dont really get aircraft there, but the frequent ones (if you can call them that) are the 737’s of Ryanair anr bmiBaby.

AMS
regional: anything Fokker
narrowbody: 737
widebody: 747

DUS
regional: CRJ
narrowbody: 737
widebody: A330

NRN
regional: does the cessna C172 count?
narrowbody: A320
widebody: well, the arse of the lady behind the check-in desk is the only thing I can think of that was wide 😮

almost too many you could say!

Newcastle has to be 737 city. KLM, BA, Ryanair, easyJet, Excel Airways, Islandsflug, Futura, (from the summer) and loads more!!;)

Don’t forget Ryanair’s 732’s at LBA!

We only have 2 in a day most days!

Mine is Farnborough, and although Rob will probably correct me I would say either the Cessna Citation or Gulfstream IV are our most frequent visitors, with Dassault Falconcs coming in close.

(

Yes Citations are probably now Farnboroughs most seen aircraft but G4’s are not to far behind. Not many 125’s since Bookajet moved out. And not much at all today, only 7 outside. Just wish Easyjet would move in!

at heathrow id say it was the 777 i dont know
