I remember you telling me about you flying on her at the time!

What does FR DISP mean? and WFU? Is the Hertz logojet that had an accident in Charleroi flying again?
Yea – i flew on her the week after he incident on LBA-DUB. Even the wings are yellow on both sides!

BA don’t operate the Q series, so thats gotta be a classic you got. Interesting.
But is there realy any need for window blinds…. you’re only in the air an average of 30-40 mins with the Dash-8’s.

The BA DH8 I flew from MAN to GLA last month (G-BRYZ) didn’t have blinds, either.

The design in the windows is there for the blinds, the grooves in the frame.
Yes, I love the Q400 take-off 😀 Really powerful!
I noticed that too.
Most likely shades are listed as an option for customers.

Do any of the Dash-8Q series have window blind at all?
It can’t be a weight saving matter, the Q400’s are over powered as they are (the 757 of the turbo prop world) and the few kilograms they’ll save is hardly worth it.

That reminds me, on my flights last week I noticed that Flybe had removed the window blinds on their Q400s, Flybe managed to do that with no fuss whatsoever, whereas look ar Ryanair who managed to kick up a right storm. Actually, as the return flight was at about sunset and I was sitting looking out to the West the sun was glaring right in through the window, which was quite annoying, I managed to improvise and use the panelling between the windows as a sun block. 🙂

If it’s partially easyJet, does that mean the seats partially recline and the window blinds partially come down? 🙂

Wait untill O’Leary finds out!
Why couldn’t they just spray some paint over the title “yJet” or put a white sticker on it?
At least it’s not completely easyJet:) I like it!
Because Ryanair are cheap b@st@rds and don’t want to spend a penny more than they need. Even if it means partially advertising their direct competitor 😉 LOL!

Nine 737’s will be for disposal at March 05. The others also say for disposal March 04 but not written off yet. Are those for March 04 still flying or not? http://www.jethros.i12.com/FLEETS/Listings/RYANAIR.html

It was the Continental tail, but has been partially scrubbed off by Buzz and Ryanair.
By: Britannia - 10th June 2004 at 21:25
Whats on the tail?
By: LBARULES - 10th June 2004 at 21:21
Just look at Jethros to find all the answers 🙂
By: Jeanske_SN - 10th June 2004 at 21:19
FINALLY
What’s their curent Delivery frequency (planes per year) and how many of the 150 738’s are left? Do they still have options?
