I don't have any information, but I love seeing things like this. It looks like the 2nd 737-300 is actually on an old airfield if you look at google maps, you can make an outline of an apron where it is parked and a runway at the west side of the racetrack above it.
Jump to postA319/20Neos , they could interchange between Mainland flights and Inter-Island flying to keep the strain on the airframes down?

Bad news: You dont have $100million.
Why has it taken 7 years since the -8MAX got certified to get the -7MAX Certified?

Seems like its completed its first flight
Where are they going to be based for flights? It says LHR is their office base, will this plane be based there?
Jump to postI wonder if EI will return to DUB-LCY, the route has not operated since 2020. I think that LH flying MUC-LCY makes sense, hope it happens at some point. LCY can no doubt handle more flight movements, considering that the taxiway expansion allows for further flight movements with less time having to...
Jump to post#BA100 retro liveries:
G-BYGC - BOAC
G-CIVB - Landor
G-CIVE - Negus
G-EUPJ - BEA (not sure if red square or the later livery)
What I've heard.
Variety of factors, tends to get more the older the plane is.
Jump to postI did NOT know that Europe could have tornado there! I thought USA only. Another brand new 737-800 MAX minor damage. but they have only one fleet Max. Q Really? Theres probably more in Europe than the US. Alas not as big. Nature at its most terrifying. Although I was once playing football in a park...
Jump to postThe BOTTOM LINE.... no 787, 77W, and now NOMORE 350 back to 333. So is the 777 the FLAGSHIP? Huh? I swear there’s more and more incoherent babble on here every day. How is the A350 no more? Jeremy I don`t even give them the time of day anymore... Remember when this was a paysite? Coherent, factual ...
Jump to postWouldnt the 787-8 be a better plane for the trip?
Jump to postSo they wanted to get away from green to break the notion that Aer Lingus was just for flying to Ireland. But didn't want lots of coloured paint on the aeroplane because that apparently says 'low cost'. And that was the result. That doesn't say low-cost, that says ULCC or seasonal-charter. Blue, se...
Jump to postJust been revealed. Not sure to be honest, the titles look too small.
Jump to postI get a feeling it will be to see off the 747s

Not sure how true this is. Id love to see it though, BOAC, Landor, BEA being discussed.
Reckon airports like Southampton and exeter will have massively reduced services with the new Virgin Atlantic feeder. I see AMS, LHR and MAN to be a few times daily and only the most profitable domestic routes as well as public service routes to remain
Jump to postSorry what airline is "CN"?
Jump to postWhat happend to STNs 2nd runway and expansion plans ?
Jump to postI would rather re-establish Northolt as a civil airport. Kick the military out of there, they can do their business at other places just as well. Build a satellite at NHT and connect it by some kind of rail/tube/People mover transport to LHR. Travelling time should be less than 10 minutes. Still be...
Jump to postBeen talked about before, its just a logistical nightmere and would cost a lot of money for probably not a lot. Manston, Farnborough and Oxford are probably better overflow options.

Jump to postW6 really is expanding to become top carrier at LTN. How many aircraft based now ?
Jump to postWe have a MAN thread, the rest of the UK thread, however I thought a London airport thread, covering the London area would be an interesting one, especially with Brexit and its possible effect on aviation in the UK capital. I often find myself wanting to know more about LHR and LGW mainly and no rea...
Jump to postSo I saw this thread and thought "oh it would be interesting to know how DL is finding their A350s" only to read two pages and found the usual Airbus vs Boeing, some waffle about other airlines, the value of underbelly cargo vs pax being left without an actual answer.
Yes or no?
I am sure the CEOs of all the airlines in question would have asked this question themselves and researched and came up with the idea that its best not doing it.
Jump to postI'm sure an A319 can do the mission. However, even if they can fly with no payload restrictions, there are only 128 seats. The 752s, when I've been a passenger, have had 150+ passengers. The route seems to have too much demand for 1 A319 but not nearly the demand for 2 A319s. Not a lot of seats, an...

Problem is not to find and follow these drones but UK clearly know that this is not done by couple geeks but someone with high knowledge and resources. Why this takes time?

Jump to postI know someone currently working for BA as staff at Gatwick, just rang him, he says the police have said that drones just keep popping up every hour and they dont want to shoot them just in case a bullet hits the drone and then deflects and hit someone or something. He also said every BA flight till...

What makes it a Christian airline? Will pax turn up to the airport to see no aircraft and be told to "have faith" that its there?
