There must be a good story to tell about a certain female attire tied to the left cockpit post in the last photo. 🙂 😉

I do not think that many leasing companies will want to lease to UA.

I would think that they would rather have them in employment than not! They could have some deal whereby if not paid daily/weekly or whatever,then they are repossessed.

In response to an earlier comment,it would up to the leasing company to make them airworthy ready for any lease.

You would think that it would be easy to source replacements from aircraft stored in the desert,and there must be still quite a few, I would think. OK,they would have the expense of painting them,but you would think that they could get a good deal. Perhaps the routes weren’t doing great anyway?

The normally accepted meaning of REPOSSESSED is that payments have not been made according to a contract,and the owner snatches them back. This is NOT the case here.

Lauda are the fully owned charter division of Austrian Airways,so yes!

I think that ‘repossessed’ is not the right term. They were coming to the end of their contracted lease,and if they wanted to renew,they would have to pay the higher rate.They therefore let them go. That is hardly being REPOSSESSED,is it?

You’re right it’s an oldie. I had to check the posting date,thought I’d gone back to 1905! (Sorry!) :diablo: :diablo:

I don’t think we EVER get the full facts about Boeing or Airbus finances,so commenting on it ,to me,is pretty pointless.
All we see are press releases,and who believes everything they read in the papers?

This could well be a bluff by Airbus ,threatening NOT to give Bae work to get loans from the UK government(sorry,said I wouldn’t comment!). I don’t see this thread going anywhere. Whatever you believe,I don’t think this thread is going to change your mind.

Well,I have to disagree! The 154 seems to have a livery designed by a committee,a bit of everything! Can’t say I like it.
Unlike the pics in general,which are truly superb! Keep up the posts,and don’t worry about the dial-up people,the more pics the better.If they’re too mean to shell out for broadband,then that’s their problem! 😀 😎

BAe are a 20% partner in Airbus,so if they don’t build the wings,what are they going to build? And how do they not get a say in all this? After all,they ARE Airbus!

Sounds like a bluff/scam to me!

Thanks for the pics G-ORDY. I don’t know much about Chrislea. They only produced a few aircraft? Totally British,or development of something else? Thanks for your help. If there were only a few,they certainly seem to have survived well.

Already tried Google—zilch! Don’t have Flypast either(…gets banned from forum!).

It’s a rare machine after all.

The Skyjeep is the only one of it’s kind in the U.K . The Super Ace of which there are two airworthy in the U.K is generally similar but in a tricycle arrangement.

I didn’t realise this was a taildragger. Anyone have a picture?

It states it is the only one,but I believe there is another,G-AKUW? Or is that a slightly different model?
