I don’t know who “TheInsideGuy” is, but anyone who does indeed know me well and felt in a position to comment would firstly have consulted me first and secondly would know exactly what position Alpha1 is in at this time. Sorry chaps but I think someone is just trying to have a bit of fun here.

Sorry chaps, been away on business, I’ve posted a statement on this site, nothing to worry about, in fact, completely the opposite.

Great news mate! Well done, hope you enjoy it, never gets boring from what I hear!

Absolutely brillaint post Ian! Thanks for sharing mate. I was chatting to the A346 capt who flew us down to Mumbai at the weekend about how he was finding the 600 compared to the 300, he seemed much happier with the 300 for some reason. How are you finding it?

I got in and got out fine thanks chaps! To be honest this is the first I’ve heard of Richard’s visa problems, he kept it all very quiet from us extremely well.

Anyway it was a great trip and Richard was on top form. I’ll post a report a bit later once I’ve got all of the billion photos I took sorted out.

Many airlines cancel business routes during bank holidays which seems to be the case here. You’ll notice that none of the cancelled flights are to or from holiday destinations. Eastern Airways in particular cancel a lot of flights on holidays.
