It’ll have been the JFK then, you must have just missed me.

Thanks,

UPS, do you know if the BA 767 was the JFK or the delayed 0815 LHR?

Nice Shots Darren 😎 Do you know what the sticker is next to the door?

Oh dear, I was looking at the 737 and thinking, uh… The Union Flag. Too many earlies I think!

it was only ever painted in full on one aircraft (G-JOEY)

Not sure what the registration of that aircraft was but this is the only G-JOEY I know.

Love the BY shots. I always think it’s so sad that such a great airline with such a long history has evolved (and coninues to do so) into what it is now.

Did that bloke really try and stop it with his hands?:confused:

If you mean the guy in the Yellow hi-vis jacket, no. I think he just happened to be reaching up to plug in his headset at the time the aircraft moved which gives that impression.

I’m not going to be drawn into the BA hates the regons debate that comes up on here with ever increasing regularity, however I must challenge this one.

plan to fly an A318 from LCY to JFK for businessmen who will enjoy departing LCY to land at GLA an hour later,sit about on the plane wasting time and money while it gets refuelled!!:confused::confused: the plot truly lost.

The current plan is a tech stop, not at Glasgow, but at Shannon where US Immigration and Customs procedures will be completed from your seat while refuelling takes place, leaving you to disembark at JFK far more easily and quickly, effectively as a domestic passenger.

The idea for the route came about after a request from one of BA’s biggest JFK LHR corporate clients whose more senior executives wanted an easier journey to and from their UK office in Canary Wharf. It remains to be seen whether it is successful, but it doesn’t sound like a “plot truly lost” to me.

It’s a shame

Would you really be happy for this situation to be hidden by the crew operating YOUR flight?

Bear in mind that around the drinks, meals and duty frees cabin crew may find themselves fighting fire, dealing with decompression, sorting out disruptive passengers, providing first aid, using drugs, using defibrilators, preparing aircraft for emergency landings, evacuating aircraft, dealing with hijack, etc, etc. Although unlikely, these are all possibilities, and all would be impaired to some extent when under the influence of alcohol.

Cabin crew are very clear on the rules relating to their role and on the implications of breaking them.

Jus dusted off the cobwebs from my manual

But you study them every day, don’t you?

What are those marks around the door on EZY 737 JW

They are the remains of the security seals that are used when an aircraft is left unattended. When removed they leave a mark that is a b***er to get off. Most aircraft will have them to some extent but that really is a build up.

The first Ryanair 737 has a mark level with the door handle and the first Easybus has one level with the window and one about a third up the door.
