May I christen the new thread by saying, what made me swear today is looking out of the window to find it pouring down with rain here in Edinburgh. There goes my outdoor plans then!

Basically they have moved Reykjavik to GLA… so all feeder flights from Europe come to Glasgow then pax onward to the states board a US bound flight at GLA, any pax wishing to actually stay in Iceland fly to Akureyri and land travel (400 miles) to Reykjavik.
Same in reverse for the inbound US flights, change a/c at GLA and on to final destination.
Sun is threatening to come out here 😀

Cheers for the explanation there! Sadly I wont be able to see any of them as I am bogged down with studying for my exams coming up in just under a week and the lack of spotting places at GLA easily accessible by public transport. Enjoy the aircraft while they are here!

I only drink Guinness when I am out which has to be the dearest beer going usually, totally worth it!

I knew the Garda Síochána were evil and the Opel Signum is a great car but that’s really harsh :diablo:

YAY!! Fellow ATR fans!!!:p

Deffo ATR, Dash-8 Q400s tend to have nose gear malfunctions, SAS got rid of theirs over that!

So I think the ATR 72-600 (when available) would be perfect for your requirement. If strapped for cash an older 500 might do the trick

Planes have started arriving at airports including Heathrow after a ban on UK airspace due to the volcanic ash cloud was lifted.

All UK airports have been allowed to re-open after experts reassessed the risk to planes from volcanic ash.

Lets all hope that the doors stay open for a while now………. Until next time…….

Why could we not have come to this conclusion much sooner. I must thank all the airlines that volunteered aircraft to test this theory out, it is people who don’t listen to experts and try it out for themselves that move this world forward technologically and in knowledge!

Not seen the regular 757s or occasional 767 or A300 then 😉

I honestly can’t remember when the last time I saw an A300 at EDI was, last time I saw an A300 was last July in Belfast! 757s and 767s I rarely see, don’t get out of bed to see the CO off!
