Thanks very much lads!

Now back to Manchester for the russian invasion 😀

Danny

Hope you enjoy your trip out. I expected more from it but definately enough to keep an enthusiast interested out there!

Mark.

Now I’m earning money, I’m looking to upgrade my PC to run FSX.

Just wondering what your vital statistics (of your PC that is!) are to run FSX, what kind of framerates/scenery settings you get out of it as well.

If you don’t mind that is!

That doesn’t surprise me one bit.

Work this week have seen numbers decline and flights regularly cancelled.:eek:

Hi all, back after a lengthy absence and now working for Manchester Airport in T3!

It seems (from reading Pprune mostly) that the competition from the US airlines may have brought about the end of the BA flight, not to mention bmi with it’s links via the Star Alliance with United etc.

The downsizing of BA at Manchester has been naturally dramatic, but outside of the somewhat monopolosied London airports, just where can they fight toe-to-toe with other operators in the UK?

Seems to me that British Airways are merely retreating to where they can operate a comfortable profit.

Unfortunately for some bizzare reason the uni decided that they should launch from what was practically speaking, a slingshot. Sadly the models did nothing but stall upon launch!

Many a weird and wonderful “model” built purely from theoretical design and aerodynamic theory:

Our design, the ultimate winner…just!

Some of the brilliant failures:
