Pax were offered flights to LGW, LTN, SEN and LPL and a transfer back to BRS or the later BRS flight. All flights had plenty of seats available so could accommodate the pax across the network.

Having had the pier active for almost a week, I can say that it is fantastic. It has more of an airport feel than the weston pier, it feels large and spacious with plenty of seating and the chicken coup barriers are non existent. The views from the top floor are of the whole airfield and you are...

Yes it was a one off charter.

Yes and no! They are the same but it depends on the engines. I was talking with a TCX captain on Friday and he was saying that part of the problem is that not all the BRS flight crew have converted yet, but they are short on pilots as well.

That is correct it was the 5th 320 for the base arriving.

Apparently it was that bloke who makes vacuum cleaners! It did SZG-BRS-BGI.

Correct it was a charter flight. Just a rundown of BMI flight numbers. BM18xx - schedule BM17xx - Airbus. (Sometimes ST17xx) BM27xx - Airbus. ( " " ST27xx) BM8xxx - Charter BM9xxx - Ferry flight.

The walkway has gone up fast over the last few months, the last of the framework connecting the walkway to the existing coaching lounge is now underway and should be complete by the end of the week. The facia is now going up and the roof is on the part running parallel to the terminal, it won't...

It's looking like EZY will be going up to 12 based aircraft with 5 of those A320's. The first based A319 with sharklets arrived on Sunday.

Thomson have also ordered 2 more 787's for delivery in 2016, I think we will see a return in 2015 of long haul.

Well they should be around for the next 5 years as they have also signed to be handled by Servisair for that length of time.

The BMI crew were notified by email yesterday, MAN, BHX and EDI bases are to close. What will happen with the crew and aircraft is yet to be seen.

The MLA tends to be more bag heavy, but they usually are with in a couple of tones of one another. For me I find it hard when I see people bang on about how unsafe it is operating the 767 in/out of BRS, when you see the hard facts the aircraft is well within its limits. I'm well aware of the...

Looks like it will be an interesting night tonight, all aircraft will be parked in to wind so those parked on the weston walkway will stop on the taxiway then be pushed backwards on to stand with the nose facing south.

Just to add to that the 737-800 needs 8,181 ft at MTOW (79,010 kg) the majority of 738's have a MTOW of 74990t what Boeing publish to what the airline used are normally a lot less, this is due to the lease company restricting it, then the airline restrict it and then the company responsible for...

It's been gusting up to 35kts tonight and ant a present place to be working out on the ramp. Some of the flights were close to their limits. It's going to an interesting few days.

Keep an eye out around September ;)

Yep that is correct it will be leaving at 1730 tomorrow 13/7.

The band are currently using another BMIR aircraft. BJ is due for a swap later in the week to be back with the band.

From what I know is it is to be used as a tour aircraft for them, It came in from ABZ yesterday (5/7) and due to operate the BM ABZ tomorrow (7/7) and return to BRS then operate out later in the week, that's all I know.......... For now!
