Suppose with it been the winter season now airlines will have spare aircraft to hand. For example Jet2.com have one 757 based at NCL that flys four times a week to TFS LPA and ACE. I was wondering if Jet2 use her as standby for any problems else where on the Jet2.com network.
Very Foggy at NCL this morning, Interesting walking to the car hearing a plane approaching then all of a sudden seeing an Eastern Jet Stream come out of the fog and pull onto a stand.
Is it repairable?
In other A340 news an EK A340-600 is grounded at Entebbe multiple bird strikes.
Great work mate, Youve never seen one of the 747s at NCL we have had a few this year, The football charter in march, The 742 covering for Monarch in the summer for a few weeks.
I think a member of the Royal Family of Dubai is currantly up north so we could get a visit from his 747 but of late its mainly been his 737 BBJ.
Everything Good at NCL the Saga express other wise known as the Thomson Fly Alicante was our last inbound she is down safe. Our last outbound Ryan Air to Dublin left Half an hour ago.
Pouring down with rain thats about it up here.
A Brand spanking new A340 will set you back £107 Million.
I cant belive you guys have to come up and do that though you guys just handled the coaches wheelchairs and bag jams.
Loverly set of shots there! That EK A330 is gourgous!
NCL is quiet of late just the Easterns and Easyjets really.
I think there was an AN-12 in with us last night leaving just after 9am this morning i think.
How long before the KLM fleet of MD11’s end up at Fedex???..any takers??
Aeroflot Cargo are apparently interested in them, aswell as Finnairs.
Do allot of airlines do that? Lease most of there fleet then cycle the older same type frames for new ones?
Or a pint of Guinness!;)
Which can only be a good thing!
Interesting comment with that picture she has been in maintance for 17 months wonder what she has been getting done?
Now that is a good looking MD-11! Nothing better than a good looking Tri-jet!
I think the Merge became offical on Monday when The new company started trading.
Great set of shots from the local mate!!
Good to see G-LSAA back in the air. Little G-THOO is a loverly little Jet aint she think were swapping her for a 738 soon!
Ek shot is the pick of the bunch for me!
A bit of expansion at NCL would be nice seen as Easyjet seems to have lost interest and Jet2.coms new routes have well fizzled out into well nothing but a chav old peoples taxi service!
