I am visiting Manston on sunday so I found out for you.
James
some nice shots there Gary.That Swiss A319 at first I thought it was an A318 :D, Like the EI-DUB/Aer Lingus Airbus A330-301 take off shot.
James
Not a chance Air France would use an aircraft that size to anywhere but Paris, and I can’t see BA getting 318’s to operate out of LCY… not if it would take custom away from Heathrow.
Maybe the idea is for 319CJ’s to be able to drop intercontinental pax off near the financial district, then ferry to, say, Farnborough until time to pick the pax up?
You never know they might take away some off there LHR flights and bring them to LCY.
James
Well Today is May 15th, had my eye out for a VLM Avro however I’ve had no luck. Any ideas if they actually are operating an Avro on any Luxembourg runs today and what colours is it in?
Wozza
EDIT – Have noticed on the website the for the forseeable future all services on the VLM booking system have reverted to the Fokker 50 – was this just a hoax or something gone wrong with the booking server?
Don’t know :confused: have too wait and see by the end off the day.
James
Brilliant news for Aer Arann.
James
The first photo’s an interesting perspective of the ever graceful Queen Of The Skies.
I guess the king off the skies will be the A380 😀
Nice shots there.
James
Nice shots there Tom off LGW what’s with the jeep is that the bird scarer?
James
BA is a possibility in the long term, Lufthansa and VLM are both commited to the 146/Avro so they are unlikely,
As aformentioned – I like the A318 at City – but would AF really use it as cityjet operate all their services there and they only use 146s,
Wozza
I think AF will let Cityjet still do the LCY-CDG flight but AF will start some new routes to LCY?
James
I think he should own a A318 now LCY can fly them.
James
Great shots there any ideas who the ATR belongs to looks like an EX AE.
James
The runway originally was shorter than its current length, significantly shorter – but in the mid-90s it was extended,
In this test did they park her up on the apron, as this test would have to be physically done before any certification can be awarded in my opinion.
yes it did park on the Apron,Wozza do you like the idea of the A318 flying at LCY now? cause I sure do 😀
I hear the D328 jet might be certification this year aswel at LCY
Hope BA , Lufthansa or VLM get the A318 for LCY
James
