As long as you don’t mind sharing with my mates Mad Frankie and Big John.:D

They make a p*ss up like T5’s look like a prayer meeting.:cool:

Is that really Msrs ‘Whaurza burdz’ and that other well known BBJ?

😉

Airbus aircraft are sold in US$, too, though, so the cost would be directly comparable to the customer. But if the $ rate stays low, it squeezes Airbus’ yields.

gd, it’s in this month’s AW (March 04):

LH 346’s entered service on December 15.

they currently have 3, operating services to Vancouver, BC, Santiago de Chile and Buenos Aires.

There are 7 more 346’s due for delivery to LH this year.

I once flew a BA Scottish internal flight with two male stewards who were so camp they made the boys in The High Life seem like big burly geezers. They somehow managed to turn the inflight safety demo into a kind of Village People inspired dance routine.

I flew on a British Midland flight from Zurich to Heathrow (about 6 years ago, pre bmi days) where the male steward managed to demonstrate how to top up the lifejacket by blowing into the mouthpiece of the microphone during the safety demo… the other male steward in the aisle was in stitches.

2nd and 3rd remind me of tap… it’s the green/red at the front. I think the first one looks better, but then that’s just me.

All the G-A*** BAC1-11s belonged to EAL.

Laterly, maybe, but not always… just checking my Skyflyers logbook, I flew BA5403 from Zurich to Glasgow (via BHX) in G-AXJK and back on BA5406 on G-AWYU at Christmas 1990, and I can assure you they were both BA Aircraft.

In fact, that flight on 5403 from ZRH to BHX is still my only cockpit visit. 🙁

I also looked the registration up recentlyish, and the aircraft had previously belonged to B-Cal.
