Hmm, sadly my Dad uses LHR enough that he knows there are no quiet periods 🙁

Second metroliner in that region to go down in a week I think. Very sad 🙁

Interesting choice. In a general sense I would have regarded a handling agent as inferior to a mainline airline. However the way the industry has changed in the last decade has reversed that rather simplistic view.

Handling agents are now similar in size to some airlines, and the job security etc remains. Coupled with the fact that Aer Lingus is now in effect a LoCo, AND with a thought to be messy privatisation up ahead, joining them might not be as attractive as it once was.

For me it would be quite a tight contest, and I guess it is for you now as you are asking the question:D

Originally G-BKTN, then to HB-AEA, last reported reg was OM-NKD not SKD.

Jetstreams do have a habit of just vanishing though, especially in a country like Slovakia where people dont report aircraft movements/changes very much.

Both BA and Scot Airways (Suckling) have attempted to run the route from GLA. I guess it’s more suited to the EDI market, it being a corporate route.

It would need to to run as a lo-co operation to be a success from GLA in my opinion. Purely because of the types of market and the alternatives to London already available from Glasgow.

Only problem being LoCo is nigh on impossible from LCY due to the exorbitant costs charged by the airport.

LCY do loads of surveys for all sorts of places, most of them have not yet come about. The only one that ever came about was Leeds, and that was asked within a few months :rolleyes:

Superb stuff, you were especially lucky with the Tunisian Herc. I’m certainly looking forward to popping back to AMS for a day next month 😀
