"Skybeast"

5 crew on TU204 8O What the hell for seems crazy to me.

Cool so why do you think only 80 if there they say around 150... Im not saying you may not be right just intrested as to why you think differently.

Thanks

Thanks for the info .. i just remember back when they first started .. the fokkers looked cool in their own livery as opposed to iberias.

Yeah good news for them, loving this airline they brighten up the dull sky here every few hours with their colourfull airbus.

Expanding quick as well.

I read earlier that china was about to purchase 70 but since the article suggests upto 150 i thought id make a new topic for such a huge order.

http://www.flightinternational.com/Articles/2005/12/02/Navigation/177/203415/Syrian+poised+for+imminent+Airbus+order.html Looks like some three 330S To replace the 747s and also 4 A321's. 1 point to enquire about would be are Syria not under the same sanctions as Iran currently or am i mistaken. Tha...

Cool news .. question .. will it be in Iberia Colours or Air Nostrum applying their own to it. Secondly will Nostrum ever operate the fleet in their own colours or always be an Iberia regional express type carrier.

Thanks in advance!

That would really suck if they were to move on. To be honest we dont usually get airlines like Styrian Spirit at Luton so it will be a very cool change, love their Colours and a/c. Hope we manage to keep them!

Would that be a start up airline, i remeber hearing like last year sometime an airline wanted to start Mumbai but that luton would be the stopover as it continued on to usa.

I have flown on the 732 twice both with the same airline and both over the wing .. was awesomme. Cool thing was i got on G-SBEA going out and on G-SBEB on the way back and they were the only 2 732's in the Sabre fleet. Lucky me! NOISY!!

Lucky you, I wish we still got the 732 .. all that noise and smoke .. I LOVE IT!

Wow intresting i thought the TU204 was bigger then the 757.

Oh for sure man, im talking big ORANGE 757s though. Stelios was always walking about the spectators building because it was pretty much joined onto the EZYland headquarters. Easy for local enthusiasts to start rumours but im pretty sure they were close on aquiring them. Now the specs is no more and ...

London Luton International Airport Pretty much famed for being Bizjet Capital of Britain. From 125's to Bbjs to Sultan of Bruneis a340. Abramoviches Pvt 767 is always sitting around and NetJets and PrivatAir seem to have a/c based here. Airlines wise well, Homebase to none other then Easyjet, Monar...

I remeber jsut after they launched Inverness and all the scotland routes and were expanding when everyone thought they were a joke that they were linked with leasing in or buying 2 Boeing 757s for no other reason then to fly between Luton and Athens. Thats the only large a/c i ever saw EZY linked wi...

Ok intresting .. to answer my own question ...

Maybe they are lobbying for this flight.. 767 Air Sahara.

Lets hope so, im sick of everything being Airbus/Boeing and the rjs .. will soon be all bombardier/Embraer. I really do love russian planes.

I have seen this report on the bbc business news earlier as well. Good sale of 70 a/c. It would make sense eventually more Chinese carriers will order the SkyBeast (A380). Just because of the way china is developing and the amount of ppl that will eventually be travelling from and to there over the ...

Some Italian airline was Livingston as mentioned above ... Livingston previously known to all of us as Lauda Air Italy. Im pretty sure i flew on that A/c when it was with Monarch.
