    It’s heartening to know flybe are doing great, the Dash 8 is very very fuel efficient, we burn about 1100kg per hour in the cruise, and can be as low as 900kg if we’re early, and LRC burn about 740kg, typically the EMB195 or A320 is about 3 tonnes per hour.
    Also the routes that we fly we can do it in the same amount of time as the Jets, but at a 3rd of the fuel burn

    Is anybody still listening to the marker beacons these days!

    No, it’s rather annoying when the last crew leave the marker idents on (probably pressed by mistake), and your on the ILS with the winds gusting 45kts, cloud at minimas & rain driving like you’ve never seen and the OM & MM ident starts to sound 😀

    The other way around mate, NCL is the IATA code & EGNT is the ICAO code for Newcastle

    Hope this helps

    Most certainly would be the Autopilot disconnect.

    I agree with what you are saying, but what I am saying is that there will be a time when a policeman wants to be a little hitler and will enforce the law, I guess the biggest thing is do the majority actually know it’s illegal? My guess is they don’t.

    Newcastle Radar 124.375 – 125.825

    Approach – 124.375

    Tower – 119.700

    Ground (hardly ever used) – 121.725

    ATIS – 118.375

    And you can’t do it any more (or ever), it’s highly illegal 🙂
    I am in no way advocating or condoning the illegal use of any ATC frequency 🙂

    All you need is an airband receiver, as to why they are allowed to sell something that is clearly going to be used for illegal purposes is anyone’s guess

    Hope this helps

    Manchester Radar 118.775 – 133.800 – 118.575 – 135.000
    Manchester Control 128.050 – 134.425 – 136.575
    Manchester Director 121.350
    Manchester ATIS 121.975 (departure) – 128.175 (arrival)

    Other useful ones from your position

    London 133.600
    Scottish 126.300

    Typically from EXT we’d use Cardiff 125.850 – London 133.600 – Manchester 118.775 – Manchester 135.000 – Manchester Director 121.350 – Tower 119.400 etc etc

    Hope this helps

    Worse than yours Future P.

    On my way to Exeter my water pump went in my car causing the cam belt to slip bending the rods & valves etc, just picked it up today and handed over £1700 for the trouble.

    You think you have it bad? swap? 😉

    Oh dear

    Just completed my annual A.R.T course with a cabin crew member who’s husband works for Zoom, she was only telling me today how much he was enjoying his job. I guess she had a shock when she got home. 🙁

    Sad for all those involved
