    Leeds Bradford - General Thread

    Couldn’t agree more with the second point, however (While admittedly I would seem to be in the minority) I dislike the station since the renovations, the station lost its charm for me, plus that modern artsy southern entrance thing is hideous. It’s a railway station, not an art gallery, it just...

    Perhaps if LBA-NQY is successful with T3, which it should be given that the loads were decent when BE operated the route if I remember correctly, they might also consider other routes out of LBA. LHR could be one of them, if MME-LHR works out they may also expand there, with the further E-Jet...

    G-DRTB on final for 32 now as EXS053B positioning in from NCL. Seems to be a bit more movement with LS ferry flights around lately, a nice development.

    I used it for an unashamedly nerdy purpose, back when you could get LBA-LHR-LBA and be at LHR for most of the day I took a trip down to 1) Try out BA as I’d never used them before, and 2) to get a days spotting in at LHR, not the cheapest way to do it, but it was my birthday money so I thought...

    Indeed, a key point from our research with the RIX crowd was that the Etihad stadium and Old Trafford and their associated teams played a large part in the recognition and draw with the MAN-RIX route among Latvian pax. Back on topic (got a bit carried away with my earlier post on BT), U2 is a...

    While I would love to see a BT A220 at LBA, unfortunately this is very unlikely for a number of reasons. Firstly they had planned to launch RIX-MAN this summer which has since been put on hold due to COVID. Secondly LBA isn’t really on BT’s radar, as they cater for mainly RIX originating pax and...

    Birmingham Airport - General Thread

    Watch out for a gang of youths wearing grey tracksuits, dark beanie hats and bikes, they were wearing all the same and as you can see, generic clothing. Be very careful and do not approach as at least two were armed with knives.

    Birmingham Airport - General Thread

    Not sure if this is the right place to put this so mods please move if appropriate. This is just a message to let people know to be very careful if using the viewing area in Sheldon country park as yesterday I was violently mugged at knifepoint. I don’t want this to happen to anyone else so...

    Indeed, I grew up flying the 733s out of LBA, will be sad when they are gone, love those little things. A bit more sad at the moment for me is that CELH has just gone a few weeks back, I had flown that aircraft more than any other. Long live the 733 I say!

    Birmingham Airport - General Thread

    Heard something rather interesting about BHX in my lecture at university today, my lecturer used to work in management and ops there and he said that when VS initially bought the A346 they approached BHX and asked about it being a diversion from LHR, but the airport had to turn them down as at...

    Birmingham Airport - Picture Thread

    Some fantastic photos and excellent variety there, did I see a Metroliner in one of those shots, haven’t seen one of those for years. All this is making me more excited for moving down to university, I’d never get to spot most of those aircraft at LBA in a month of Sunday’s.(y)

    It would seem that G-MAJK carried the Full Purple livery, looks like the only J41 to have carried it as well.

    Nothing yet from LBA or the German airline, I can confirm that this still appears on the car park booking system.

    Route Development

    Hopefully eurowings actually start flights this time, if I remember correctly they were rumoured a few years ago after they applied for some slots from LBA-MUC I think, but it turned out they were placeholder slots, let’s hope this attempt goes further

    With the summer schedules winding down now and the arrival of the next batch of 738s, does anyone know of Jet2 are going to be shedding any of their 733s this winter,I would hope not as it’s less variety, but hey ho, progress I suppose :cry:

    Looks like primera are at it again, subbing some STN flights for a 737-800, which can’t go direct without a severe weight Penalty, what an absolute sham this airline is:LOL::LOL:

    Looks like he’s diverting to MAN instead, now stopped circling and headed out over the Pennines.
