If I were actually going to benefit from its move, then I may have contributed.

Surely as an aviation fan you are. If it were left at LHR, it would simple decay. At least by moving it to MAN its preservation is guaranteed.

I too have never liked that Peter Max scheme.

Me neither. Great to see the Karthago 320 🙂 Thanks

LOL 😀 very funny

I don’t recall United ever operating the tristar

They had a small number (pic here)

Yeah, BA and BMI do for their call signs, but what about from a passenger’s perspective?

seems first choice are also changing the flight codes from the old D, C system to a new 4 numbered system.

Aside from BY, FCA and TCX, does anyone know of other airlines using alpha characters in their flight numbers? I do remember a few years ago that only BY used to do so.

my point exactly, I think the most growth will be in the north. I think that MAN will attract the most people, so why little loco’s there. At LGW you have FR, U2, WW, soon Helvetic, ZB, Germanwings for example and LTN has FR, U2, Wizz, ZB, Helios?

thomsonfly could fill a gap in the market at Doncaster (or whatever its going to be called) if it flies the right routes. As demonstrated in the south people are less willing to travel to the airports where there is an even spread (LGW, STN , LTN) of airlines.

Thomsonfly seems like it will offer similar services from DSA as those from CVT in the next couple of years. Surely there is also potential for a loco at HUY?

The tail looks fine but the top looks like I painted it! I’d love to see IB do something like Binter have done and get rid of the IB logo – it’s way too ’80s.

Would also like to see AZ, OA and TP revise their (slightly dated) liveries.
