In the news surrounding the relaunch of MAN-LAS and possibly returning to o LGW, we had the very welcome news of expansion goals for them in the period 2025 to 2030,
For MAN, Shai Weiss stated they would be looking to add 1 or 2 routes per year, mostly tied in with Virgin Holidays. To...

Happy 21st anniversary of the Italian fly-in extravaganza. Got up nice and early on 28th May 2003 to record everything that moved, Main radio switched on to Tower, portable radio was covering approach (and scanning ops frequencies!)
looking at the forum Ashely mentioned, it states LHR is planned for 10 weekly (alongside MAN with 9 weekly and BHX 3 weekly).
To run all those flights and CDG, you are probably looking at 5 aircraft possibly 6 needed.

I literally got back form Dunham Massey around that time - got to the front door just as it started a few drops then the heavens opened. Not sure how MAN doesn't appear to have had anything divert away but we seem to have taken 1 LPL diversion,
Plenty of interesting routings though - LBA-BHD...

Weekends (if I'm not out and my brother isn't visiting me) and evenings are when the laptop is out and I'm logged in. Much easier for me know exactly what I'm typing if there's something I want to share...
Technically the 14th anniversary of me working at my present job. Tuesday after the May Day bank holiday is when I started .. last Saturday was the actual anniversary.
30 years ago today, when the interval act upstaged the entries in the Eurovision Song Contest. Had I been the winner, I would have searched out Michael Flatley and Jean Butler and handed them the trophy
