This livery reminds me a bit of TNT and the new Gulf Air. I do not expect KLM to introduce new colours to the regional fleet anytime soon. The current regional livery is only a few years old.

On a sidenote, is that a F70 or a F28, the eniges seem a bit too small to be a F70.

I hope the webmaster won’t kill me off for this! 😀 😮

I read the book and was kind a dissappointed by it.

It does not really tell a lot of things we do not know, or that can not be found out with a 10 minutes google search. It has a lot of anecdotes (sp?) from the writer who seems to have had a good time when in the business.

If you want to know why low costs are succesful and the traditional airlines are less so, I suggest a search on a.net or this message board. You will get the same information without the writer telling how he got the information (I went to the island of *** to meet Sir Freddie Laker. I arrived at the airport and looked for my ride….. etc etc etc) or the complete life story of Sir Laker (he was born…. etc etc etc).

Its an interesting bedtime read, but don’t expect to base your dissertation on this book!

I think I know what old git means. I think he means “Mort Subite“. Haven’t tried it myself but seen it at work, I work at a beer whole saler. All that beer, and I can’t drink it… 🙁

You’ll probably know this site, but I’ll post the link anyway. It seems to have a rather comprehensive list with Belgian beers.

thanks mate!

Congratulations!

I’ve seen that book at the LHS in Aalsmeerderbrug (near Schiphol), so it has been released to Europe. If I am not mistaken I have also seen it at one or more WHSmith’s in the UK.
