Tommy, I actually agree with you on that one, Britannia did have one of the best liveries going, such a shame its not around anymore!

Great pic there Bmused, thanks for sharing.:)

Their website is still live, so I assume they are still around.

I don’t/haven’t kept a log of all the flights that I have been on, so this is from memory, but here goes…:

Air 2000 – 757-200

Air Canada – 767 (I think, when I went LHR-YYC) & 777

BMI – A320

Britannia Airways – 757

British Airways – 747-400 & 777

Continental Airlines – 737(-800, I think?), 757-200 & 777-200ER

First Choice – 757-200

Hawaiian Airlines – 767

JMC Airlines – 757

Monarch Airlines – 757

Porter Airlines – Dash 8 Q400 (my best flight I’ve ever had…!:D)

Virgin Atlantic – A340-600 & 747-400

I suppose the main reason as to why it is being dropped is because the number of passengers that have chosen to travel on this particular route have not been sufficient after the tragic accident.

In reply, Manx2 said it had chartered the aircraft involved from a fully insured carrier – the Spanish-based firm, Flightline BCN

The online business is known as a virtual airline, with the company insists it operates as a booking office or ticket provider.

It sells seats on a plane, but the craft is owned and operated separately.

I think this is really bad…and shows a complete lack of respect towards those that lost their lives and were seriously injured.

Whilst they may well be a “virtual” airline/ticket provider, at the end of the day the flight was marketed as a “Manx2” flight, and therefore the responsibility of it should come down to them, and then it would be down to the Manx2 management to seek damages from Flightline BCN if it is found to be at fault in anyway.

Head Kandi is the name of the music label that produces a lot of club/dance music that is played in Ibiza, hence why they operated the flights to IBZ.:cool:

Nice pic there GA.:)

I’ve watched this video a number of times now, and seeing it does pose an interesting question…on the day of a shuttle launch, are commerical operations affected greatly?

Obviously the distance from where this particular aircraft was in relation to the space shuttle launch was fairly significant, but what actually happens when a launch is scheduled, I assume there is an exclusion/no-fly zone put in place that stops any/all aircraft from flying within a certain radius of the launch site, and does NASA have to compensate commerical carriers for any disruption/inconvience that this may cause?

Wouldn’t it be great to actually be inside it!

The plane, the shuttle or both…choices, choices. I know which I’d prefer!;)
