Thanks Ren/Moondance.

I was hoping it was – though I can’t remember anything about the flight!

Nothing more to add. 🙁

At Teesside we had an An-124!

Pictures and reports can be seen in the above link. I saw this plane fly overhead and it was one hell of a sight for someone only used to seeing the odd F100 and A320!

I think a 757 from EDI and a 757 from GLA makes better sense than one 767 from GLA. The passenger gets more convenience and options, and both airports remain served on the route.

As an aircraft fan, of course we want to see 764s running from our local airports, but airlines run for the benefit of passengers not us I’m afraid. If GLA gets downgraded to a 757 as a result of this, I would suggest thats a good thing because the main point is:

Both GLA and EDI would have a direct link to EWR which is better than just one airport.

I never get any personal messages! 🙁

Don’t forget restrictions do apply from the Canaries as technically they are outside the EU.

Great report LBA – thanks.

You’re right T5; I’ve been on G-OBYI this summer to Cancun – great flights. I’ve also been on G-BYAI on an LPA-LBA run back in 1997 – can’t remember anything specific about the flight so it must have been OK.

LBA – isn’t CDUP one of the acquired 752s, whereas most of the others were new? Maybe thats why there is a difference in seat height as it still as the same seats as its precedessor?
