That does now seem to be disputed Kev. At first the reports were suggesting the attacker had got hold of the fire axe inside the aircraft, but now they are saying he took it on with him through the lack of security.

Bergamo is about as far from Milan as Malpensa is.

Just checked it out:

5B-DAK Cyprus Airways

01/07/2003 registered to Eagle Aviation who have an A300, an A320, and a 732 in addition to this 310.

At a guess I’d say they are the French euqivalent to Titan?

Nope!!!!

Nice shots, I saw that A310 in Lisbon last summer with absolutely no titles whatsoever. Think its ex Cyprus Airways?

Not really, BA’s feeder service works very well into LHR and to a lesser extent LGW. Strong connections throughout the UK and Europe, and also with the Middle East. Emirates are just trying to tap into that market, that is also shared by KLM at AMS, AF at CDG, and LH at FRA.

Interesting stuff. Will be good to see the figures Airbus publish for this “A350” to see whether Boeings claims are substantiated or not.

However the usual once daily flight MAN-JER increases to about 6 daily on Saturdays due to the charters, which I think includes every type in the fleet?
