Not sure why the concern about Wizz coming in (if). They largely offer different routes, would likely be working W patterns thus operating at off peak periods and as touched on - reduce the risk associated with limited airlines. I’m sure Ryanair will be well aware of any rumours and have had...

I had two 5 1/2 train trips to and from Portsmouth this week due no flights!

Really good summary and some interesting points, thanks!

There are other flights to the Balearics (from other airports) turning round - something happening out there?

Before we get back on topic, you’re not alone!

He scored a hat trick last night and the plane came back empty

I think it’s just an issue with the written word. It’s hard to project (or conversely) understand the context or intent of words sometimes, and think this is just a case of that. Many a time have I written or read a short message and it’s been misinterpreted or taken out of context either by me...

You realise this raises the hopes of any plane geeks (me included) on here? I know you’re not suggesting anything either way, but the optimist in me says there’s still a chance of this happening!

Where have you seen this?

I saw the Atlas 747-8 turning in tonight - is this a regular from Houston?

In fairness the I used the Belfast flights commuting to Derry with work, and no matter what time of day it was very very rare there were double digit empty seats. I think it could sustain 6-7 per day but I’m inclined to agree - they’re fighting over a decent demand but oversupplying it.

How does it work come to think of it? Obviously A N Aeroplane can’t just rock up and ask to land - how much notice would the airport need (assuming they have the servicing capabilities). I’m guessing I can’t go out tomorrow and hire a Corsair A330 and just announce on the morning that I’m...

You won’t be saying that when a 787 rocks up!

Shame they don’t have a couple of 154’s locked away for contingencies!

Wow, have you lot nothing better to do? Time to mauve along now

It was definitely Saturday towards the end - walk round the tarn with the kids timed nicely. Could hear it coming from miles away

I had loads (literally hundreds) of photos of Spantax, Orion, Hispannia, Aviogenex and the like from my obsession in the 80’s. I dread to think how much they cost my dad to get developed. Unfortunately gave them away when selling my Schabak collection (I had about 80 of those) at Bingley car...

Shame on them (slightly tongue in cheek). I now live in Halifax (due schools) but whilst I can see Bradfords flaws, I’m immensely proud to come from Bradford. It has improved, it is slowly improving all the time and as the arena comes in to use it should increase social and nighttime footfall...

Wow, as a Bradfordian I never thought I’d see us the envy of Leeds! There have always been grandiose but nearly always unachievable visions for Bradford. One railway station, opening the canal up, Odsal (Wembley of the north) - never coming to fruition. It shouldn’t have to, but until the two...
