    RE: Low Cost Airlines

    Frequencies would be good please SAAB. I’ve added most of the Aurigny flights to the mainland, just got the others to go.

    RE: Low Cost Airlines

    dtuesley – Good point. I’m going to add an about section and point out that the majors aren’t listed. I’ve thought about adding the majors like BA and bmi, but obviously (like you say) the problem is that there are just so many flights. Including them would mean I have to include all foreign airlines with flights into the UK, Heathrow alone would be huge.
    I haven’t totally ruled out a complete European guide, but want to see if this is a success first, if it is then who knows.

    Seems to be popular here.

    PS Thinking of registering http://www.lowcostflightguide.co.uk – good domain for it?
    flightguide.co.uk already taken but no site up!

    RE: Low Cost Airlines

    Thanks again for the info.

    Looks like it may be difficult to keep track of all of these!

    It is a shame about Mama Air, I too was looking forward to them 🙁

    The idea for the site was seeing my dad looking for a flight to Pisa. He had no idea who flew there except Ryanair and was about to book two seats from Stansted (100 miles away) at £100+ each before I suggested bmibaby and MyTravel Lite (20 and 40 miles away). Eventually booked with baby at £60 each. I think if I can get it known to others and not just us enthusiasts sort then it could prove pretty popular.

    RE: Low Cost Airlines

    Thanks for the info guys!

    Ryanair have already decided their Summer flights as you can book them, problem is they haven’t added it to their timetable page which means I’ll have to go through each day of the week for each route as it is most of the time slightly different frequencies.

    Who are LowFare Jet and FreshAer? Are they UK based?

    Wingtips – Monarch will be included and I suppose I’ll have to include the other charter airlines scheduled flights as well. Monarch have a nice timetable thingy on their site so it will only take a few minutes (I hope).

    Thanks Again

    At the moment an enthusiasts civil aviation site.

    I’m looking at opening a new section which will allow people to search for low cost airlines that operate on certain routes. Aimed more at the general public who don’t know websites of the loco’s and may get more visitors.

    Yep, see other thread about spotting facilities or the relevant guide on my website:
    http://www.plane-mad.com/uk.php

    Virtually everwhere has been closed, I had to settle for EMA today as opposed to LHR, MAN or BHX!

    Taken from the top of the car park which has unfortunately been closed (top two floors) after the terrorist threat. Lets hope this threat is temporary!

    RE: Scottish delights

    Keltic – Where abouts in Edinburgh were these taken? Is there a viewing area there?

    Very nice pics and agree that the snow makes them look even better.

    Andrew – I don’t think it has been decided yet as to whats happening to the F100’s so maybe thats as far as they’ll go. Would love to see one in the new colours though, preferrably before they all ship out of EMA!

    RE: Spectators Facilities

    [updated:LAST EDITED ON 15-02-03 AT 09:02 PM (GMT)]Everywhere has been closed at MAN following the threat this week exept the Aviation Viewing Park which remains open with extra security (for the time being).
    It seems anywhere you are near to aircraft has been closed all around the coutry, BHX is the same and obviously Heathrow (Queens building viewing area closed).
    I spent the day at EMA without problem though.

    I’ve got a few guides to airports on my website and a comments section at the bottom of each, I’ve left a comment regarding the situation as I know it in the appropriate guide.

    Lets hope its a temporary measure!

    RE: RE%3A T%3AA%3AT%3AU… How do you feel about them%3F

    Just read serendib post and I have to say there is a huge fuss being made over nothing! They kiss and kuddle, so what! If it was a bloke and a woman it wouldn’t be looked at.
    With regards the video, lets face it, there are worse out there, Holly Valance and Cristina Aguilara have had one each that are a lot worse (still nothing wrong with them though).

    And Richard and Judy trying to get the single banned, are they mad? What is so bad about the song or the lyrics that leads to them making such a ridiculous claim?

    RE: Ryanair Cancel Buzz at Bournemouth

    SAAB – 733’s are staying for how long? By the sounds of it not too long if they’re not repainting all the aircraft. Low costs seem set on one type, which for Ryanair is the 738 so I’d be surprised to see them around for too long.
    Do you think they may sell a few of the -200’s early and replace them with -300’s for a couple of years before going totally 738?
