I flew to Girona with Ryanair for around £20 return in December 2005 when they had that massive free sale, litrally you could go anywhere in the Ryanair network for any time period almost free. I don’t think they have had a sale like that since.

As usual with the politically correct BBC the program was very biased, nothing much to report than that. Topped off with the hypocritical namby pamby tree huggers, with one in particular who flew said he flew a mere 3 weeks ago! :rolleyes:

Lets face it, no one is going to stop using air travel – and whether the tree huggers or the BBC like it they can do nothing about it.

Is this going to be a regular thing, reporting on minor problems at EDI? :rolleyes:

I did hear the event on airband radio will not bore you with the story!!

You probably best not do, that is an offence.

Judging from that review I would’t want to spend 12 hours on them to Cape Town. 😉

Hey Rick,

From MAN-HUX you’re looking at a track mileage of around 5100 nm, dependant on the oceanic clearance given by ATC. As Sam says westbound Atlantic traffic have been heavily affected by the winds across the Atlantic as of late, thus westbound flights have been making a lot of fuel stops recently, thus why you will be doing the same. Flight have also have been tracking a lot further north recently, towards Greenland.

The oceanic clearance is almost impossible to predict for an individual flight (it depends on the flow and also on the winds), however I have got for you today’s MyTravel routing between MAN-SFB on a 763. I hope that is ok for you.

Image at bottom, missing some of the points off, but the routing displayed is roughly what was flown on the flight plan that is above.

Any more help just ask.

Cheers

They probably wanted to get away as quickly as possible considering it was a 7 hour delay. Might have been heavy too, that’s another reason.

London Standsted to NYO, (Sweden Stockholm-Skavsta)

Here you go, this is the route (Ryanair flightplan):

EGSS-ESKN B738/M EOBT/TTL_EET/0150
N0460F370 DCT CLN UL620 ARTOV UP44 SOMVA UP155 ANDIK UR12 JUIST UN873 DETSO DCT

So that is a Clacton SID out of Stansted.

It is in pictorial form at the bottom. If you want the return just ask.

Also MAN to HUX (Huatulco) – with Thomas Cook, they state they stop at Orlando Standford to stop you re-fueling??

I’ll try and get this one.

What you should be doing is penalising the old gas guzzlers

That is from the man who’s airline operated 732s until late 05. :rolleyes:
