Thanks for the info Aviador!

Is runway 5L/23R currently under going some maintenance or re surfacing? I ask this because I flew into the airport last Wednesday night and as the aircraft crossed 5L it was closed with a fleet of vehicles on it. Does anyone know anything?

It doesnt really matter if the website says its an A310 and everyone turns up and gets to fly on a 777! Its bigger, it has more seats so it shouldn't be a problem.

Knowing Jet2, the plane is probably knackered.

That will be an Easyjet training flight. Newbies on base training will be doing a few circuits.

Just wondering... how do you know of this occurence? :smile:

Re: Movements Log & Heads Up So I'm guessing the a/c tech in BFS is a QC? Which is why Jet2 have aircraft flying all over the place for various 'missions'! Surely it would make more sense to send the Blackpool aircraft to cover at Belfast and send this G-FIXE straight to Belfast to operate the...

There are many other factors involved though in determining the useable runway of an airport. A turbojet aircraft must land withing 60% of the runway distance available which is 4420ft. This is further reduced to 3845ft in wet conditions (a factor of 15%). That means the landing mass must be...

tower freq 455.6125? is that on another band to the 120.3 or something?!

Theres already a taxi rank?!

Aviador, as it says in the extract Boeing expect them in service in the 3rd Quater and are 95% complete (75% complete for the GE powered).

Aviador, there really aren't many fine details! Once you have paid for the flight (including the additional booking fees etc) and got your email receipt, just show up to the airport with your boarding card (that was printed a few hours in advance), don't go over the baggage allowance and...

Re: Movements Log & Heads Up just wondering if there is a daily movements update posted on another website nowadays?!

Does anyone know if these aircraft were full then?

Heathrow slots are some of the most sought after in the world, and very hard to get hold of (which is why they are very expensive). I doubt they will flog the majority of their slots just because they have merged. Both these airlines could sustain the same flights before they merged so why not...

I do believe it was a fire shutter that had broken Aviador. Its just pathetic that it took them 20mins, and another arrival later for them to realise. It is just staggering that there is only 1 exit door out of the place. The person collecting us ended up having to pay for the short stay car...

Its about time something started! I went to Gdansk at the weekend and on the return trip into LBA we were stuck in the arrivals hall for 20mins. The single exit door had broken and would not work. Eventually, after a long wait, they took us through the domestic area. That arrivals hall really...

Its all about the money, they won't pay out for airbridge costs and as part of the deal they want there aircraft on stands closest to the terminal, so others lose out.

Re: Manchester Airport Road, Rail & Access Issues Aren't they based in Horsforth?!

The titles look too high up on the fuselage! Seems weird!
