There’s a seating plan on their website. I think the stretched version is comparable to the DC8-60 series which seated about 250 if I remember correctly.
Also just remembered that AF and LH (Privatair) use A320/319/737 in all business class configuration on longhaul flights.
Economy seating on 757s fall into 3 categories;
charter config (Monarch, First Choice etc 228-235seats)
scheduled config (BA, CO etc 160-180 seats)
shuttle config (BA used to run @8 757s with 195 seats)
Whilst the 757 is a great ac, imo it can be a real pain when boarding/disembarking as 200+ passengers have to use 1 aisle.
Hawarden is near Queensferry. It’s on the outskirts of Chester and the BAe factory there (think it’s called BAe Broughton) manufactures many Airbus wings and other parts. The Beluga would have been going there.
That does not exist here. I hope to see better things in the North American, and world, market.
I don’t know – when I was in the US a couple of weeks ago I saw a couple of JetBlue aircraft with varied colourschemes. I believe JetBlue is also installing PTVs on them. There is innovation, just not from the major carriers.
