    Leeds Bradford: Ryanair Route News & Base Updates

    Not forgetting though that Ryanair will be operating a mixed fleet of 738s, Max 8-200s and Max 10s, so still plenty of aircraft that can operate out of airports not suitable for the Max 10. Plus MoL has stated he would like more Airbus aircraft in the fleet, over and above those currently...

    Leeds Bradford: Ryanair Route News & Base Updates

    It would appear that to reduce the risk of tail strikes during rotation Boeing have designed a modified landing gear that increases in length as the aircraft accelerates, giving another 9.5 inches of clearance and after takeoff the gear “shrinks” back to normal dimensions so it fits in the...

    Don’t give them ideas!

    Media portray Leeds Bradford airport unfairly.

    Leeds Bradford: Airport seeks legal clarification on night flying

    I suppose LCC have to walk a fine line between supporting business and protecting the community, especially with the likes of G..BA constantly on their backs, all while adhering to the law. Credit to both the Council and LBA for playing a straight bat, dotting all the i’s and crossing all the...

    G…BA can whinge all they like and employ all the lawyers they want but the fact remains LBA have thankfully won this one.

    Leeds Bradford: (LBA) - General Thread

    Given the usual three up and three straight back down scenario in recent years both Leeds and Sunderland have beaten the odds. Well done to both.

    Leeds Bradford: Airport Road, Rail & Access Issues

    I can’t comment too much as my 18 year old grandson is doing the half marathon but at least he’s only causing half of the disruption!

    Leeds Bradford: Ryanair Route News & Base Updates

    “MOL stating FR are having to divert once a day, up from once a week a decade ago, due to bad behaviour on board.” Whilst I wouldn’t dispute that behaviour in public has declined over the last ten years the fact that Ryanair now have to divert more frequently due to poor onboard behaviour may...

    Leeds Bradford: KLM Route News & Schedule Updates
