    Got to agree with T5, I’ve just flown HUY – AMS – LAX with KLM, planes clean and tidy, on time both ways, service, food and entertainment superb and best of all free beer all the way!!!

    Overall far superior to VS that i flew in May.

    Hi,

    I’ll be at the viewing park from 10.30 in the morning, as i’m going on a “tech tour” of Concorde at 11.

    If you’re going to be there pm, can you get a picture of TOM 5733, which departs at 15:50, as i’ll be on it.

    Cheers

    Jon

    Yeah is the new Terminal.

    Part of the new Departures Hall at the Northern end of the Terminal.

    Not due to be opened up until next year, so only site workers inside.

    Why not name a 737 then?

    What’ the point of Jet2 painting LSAB in Menorca colours, when they are not going to operate it on this route? Doesn’t make a great deal of commercial sense to me!!!

    Got the answer:-

    The 738 couldn’t be used straightaway due to having to have a “C” check before coming on the UK register. This took longer to get it ready than expected, Thomsonfly therefore had charter the Hola 757 for a month. 738 is now ready and being used on loco flights until nextweek, when 738 will take over charter duties.
