    Route Development & Rumours

    Interesting statement from Shai Weiss C.E.O of Virgin Atlantic.He says that Virgin Atlantic has pretty well given up on Heathrows third runway and future expansion is likely to come from expansion from existing bases,a return to Gatwick and flights from regional airports such as Bristol.Im not...

    Random Stuff!

    I think you have hit the nail on the head T.L.Y. I flew out of Bristol Airport the other week, and the truth is that the Airport is run efficiently.When I flew out,there was no fast track but the two queues for the security combs moved progressively.The staff and systems in place all work to...

    Airport Master Plan for next 30 Years - Consultation

    I was listening to Radio Bristol this morning as I was driving between jobs.Not surprisingly the bulk of the morning was dedicated to people phoning in, commentating on Bristol Airports successful appeal to increase passenger numbers.From what I heard I'd say the options expressed were 50,50,for...

    Airport Master Plan for next 30 Years - Consultation

    I would have thought the Legal Costs are going to be fairly high and may even require a rise in local council taxes. I wonder if all the pressure groups are going to put their hand in their pockets to contribute. No,thought not !!!

    Route Development & Rumours

    Much as I'd like to see a return of transatlantic flights to the United States from Bristol,I don't think its going to happen and I don't think its a priority for Bristol Airport at this moment in time.Post Covid I should imagine their priority is to restore the full schedule of flights they had...

    Reading on the bristol live Web site,that Bristol Airport have applied for compulsory purchase of twenty two parcels of land to allow the upgrade of the A38 to dual carriageway.Some of the pieces of land are quite small but others for instance, the land at the side of the Airport Tavern by...

    Random Stuff!

    Well, at 63, I think I'm more than qualified to reminisce with you two. I can remember the Dan Air 727s but not the Yugoslavia ones.Talking of Dan Air, my Dad who was also an aircraft enthusiast, and I recall him taking my Mum and I up to the back of the Airport one night in the hope of...

    Bristol Airport - General Thread

    Something I didn't mention in my previous posting,was that when I driving home from work the other afternoon,I tuned into Radio Bristol to listen to the news bulletin and heard the tail end of a statement from a spokesman for s.b.a.e. The gist of the bit I heard was that they were asking for...

    Bristol Airport - General Thread

    I can't see the airport not appealing the decision to turn down expansion. I would have thought within days of the councils ratification of the decision to reject expansion,the airports legal advisors would have been scouring the formal documents laying out the reasons for rejection looking for...

    Movements, Logs & Head Up

    It's strange isn't it T.L.Y.At one time even being interested in the comings and goings at Bristol Airport,I certainly tended not to take to much notice of the normal departures/arrivals unless it was something unusual.Now,hearing and seeing a jet coming into view after clearing Dundry...

    Movements, Logs & Head Up

    Well,my powers of aircraft identification aren't as good as they used to be but I'd like to think I could spot the difference between a jet engined bae 146 and a prop A400m atlas.Having said that, back when the old terminal building had a spectator balcony overlooking the apron.I can remember...

    Another Easy jet A319 G-EZIM departed Bristol for Luton this morning. Anyone see the A400M Atlas in the area yesterday afternoon .Quite low altitude and did quite a few circuits.My brother who lives in Hewish directly under the flight path to the East of the runway was convinced there were...
