    RE: MyTravel pull out

    Good point but MyTravel have pulled out of Luton.Not the new Lo Cost version.See what you are saying but for a charter to pull out of a base its not through competition or too many carriers at the base its because the area does not command the business.But it will be interesting to see in a year or two if they are aggresive and base the Lo Cost airline there ??

    Andrew,
    Thats fair enough.Its obvious you have had a bad (or a few) bad trips with Airtours ! I have worked for them for 8 1/2 years now and i know what you mean about the a/c being out of date and shoddy.But at the moment a new fleet has been ordered and the junk is on its way out ! So we are told ?

    Regards,

    Lyndon.

    AIR-TWO-BOB is the nickname for Air 2000.As for any change from Airtours to MyTravel it is the same airline with the same a/c and the same people.You must have had a bad flight ? What went wrong ?

    Regards

    Lyndon.

    What you have to remember is MyTravel has only just changed the c/s.Only 3 aircraft support the full colours at present.To keep costs down when the lo cost airline starts all it needs is the lite sticker on the side.If the venture fails then all they do is pull the sticker off to avoid expensive re-paints and having the aircraft out of action for a few days which would cost a fortune.

    RE: Amazing

    No i didnt feel ill just a bit wobbly.The pilot said that was due to the G-Forces which makes the blood rush to your head.You see in films the skin on peoples faces rippling and i could feel mine doing it.The worst was an outside turn.Where they bank the aircraft to the left but turn right.Feels very strange.The airfield is near RAF Church Fenton,about 30 min drive from Leeds.

    Im probably wrong but id say it was taking off.To me the flaps dont look fully extended which they would be for landing.

    >Exactly, prevention is the best cure! Thank you wysiwyg thats what ive been trying to say all along.There has been no direct link with smoking and an incindent leading to a crash so lets keep it that way ! But lets not give the idiots new ways to try things out that could lead to a serious incident.

    All i know about them is that they have two A330-300 on lease from Skyservice.They also use the Skyservice flight deck who go down there on 1 month rotations.
