Jonathan78: so whats you no about something big at end of week what you heard
Its something to rival DSA and take the lime light away from DSA’s 1 year of operations birthday celebrations this weekend. Thatβs all I’m going to say at the mo.

Ok Then. So then I’ll refrace my previous Question. Did AEU Have problems with the B737-300 over the weekend down it Gatwick???
I heard that Thomsonfly havent put no slots in for LBA for summer07
anyone heard that?
Well will just wait and see what happens on Thursday, When the New 2007 Brochers are released by Thommos. (Hint guys. Look in the New First Choice Holidays brocher which was released 2 weeks ago to see who’s operating the weekly Corfu flights for them. It tells you what you need to Know if TOM are baseing or not in summer 07.)
Also Trust me on this one all acounts something big is going to happen before the end of this week at LBA, And some might like what they see. Others might Not. What I can say is everyone in Yorkshire is going to know about it by Monday Evening or Tuesday Morning Ok, Because it I’ll be all over the local NEWS.

The FCA A320 aircraft in question did in fact work for Astraeus on the LBA-CWL-FNC-CWL-LBA service yesturday.
So i’m guessing, AEU had problems with the B737-700 at Gatwick this past weekend???

Might of been Abeerdeen but definately a continuation on their Newcastle leg
Wozza, it was Aberdeen it use to carry onto. BUT like I say Air wales never went to Inverness so it’s it is not keeping with snapping up ex-Air Wales routes
Hope that clears that one up
Wouldn’t surprise me as it is in keeping with snapping up ex-Air Wales routes
How’s that when Air Wales never even operated to Inverness??? Not even from its home base at Cardiff.
Eastern Airways, Do operate flights into Inverness from Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds/Bradford though.

Maybe so, but no-one cares what you think of our humble little airport π
Paul – Proudly living near LBA since 1981…
Well said Paul. I really could’nt say anything Better about are little airport on top of the Hill.
Except for, We are the Home to the ever expanding low cost airline Jet2.com and Yorkshire Number 1 airport. I guess that has proven that point. π
Hi, Nice Pic’s there mate.
Noticed that you manage to see the long term resident My Travel B757-200 G-PIDS on her last flight from Manchester. She was re-reged last week onto the US register and reoqantied with her engines on Friday. Then on Saturday morning she was fuel up. She left MAN on a ferry flight to the US. As it has been bought by US Cargo carrier Evergreen International.
Also will My travel ever get round to painting that Airbus A320. She looks horrid in that current livery.
