    Did someone in BA get a massive bung for this transaction or what ?

    Give to JFK I say!

    OMG!! 😮
    You mean the one that the aircraft have to cross to get from the main airport to the BA hangers?!
    That’s awful! Is it going to be permanent?

    90 km or about 60 miles.
    I wouldn’t have thought it would take to long?
    Guess the thing to do is email that contact if interested.

    Yes, you agreed with RIPConcorde on the pilot being given a warning or some other. What is with this culture of trying to blame someone when people don’t even know the full story.

    I asked the question of if he should or not.
    Didn’t say that he definitely should.

    I can’t see Aer Lingus switching to Boeing now, not after their order for A320’s I can see them sticking with the A330 – or even going for the A340-500/-600?

    Yeah, EI are an all Airbus camp now, bar a few 737s so should go with Airbus again.
    Talking of runway length, I’ve always wondered how AF can get that A343 off of SXM’s 7000ft runway non-stop back to Paris!

    Nice photos.

    I noticed an Alitalia A319/20 (didn’t get a good look) leaving EDi last night.

    Anyone know what it was doing there?

    It will have been Eurofly who have exactly the same colour scheme as Alitalia. May even be there own charter division?
    Anyway, they are doing the usual summer charters from Malpensa and Bologna(Rimini while it’s closed) as they have been doing for the past few years for the Italian tourists.

    “I have a problem with the front wheel, your daft idiotic dispatchers have wrecked my wheel, what the bloody hell am I supposed to do?”

    What an ignorant pilot! I wonder if anything will come of his actions?

    Great photos.
    Those DC-10s are looking tired now. Get them repainted! That might help. 🙂

    The -300’s are still here, but it must just be the extra routes and frequencies. On the -300 side, G-IGOK, IGOW, EZYB, EZYM, EZYL, EZYC, EZYG, EZYI and EZYK were all in today.

    So a nice mix then. 🙂

    Thanks for the comments RIP, no not the A330 today unfortunately. is always used on Sundays and sometimes during the week.

    The -700’s are getting very common here now, almost as much as the -300’s. Today I saw EZJO, EZJD, EZJT, EZJY and EZJV.

    Where are the all the -300s going?! They can’t withdrawing them at that rate can they?

    Not an A330 from Cyprus then today I see.
    Looks like STN is starting to get the -700s from EZY. How common are they just now?

    Thunder and lightning, rain coming down by the bucket load! 😮

    Interesting.
    BMi flies three to four times a day from Edinburgh to Brussels with ERJ 145’s, sometimes 135’s. These are the only ERJ’s we have at Brussels. Boring Brussels. highly boring Brussels.

    Not ERJ135s anymore. 145s all the time now.
    Correct me if I’m wrong but I think they ERJ135s are at MAN and ABZ? :confused:
    I have to say, I would like to fly in one, but haven’t yet.
