Re: Ryanair to close Belfast base
This is the man who says that he can do away with co-pilots on all flights and that othr crew can come in and help the pilot go through procedures! this man is crazy and should be locked up. one of his jems was that he could introduce standing areas on 738's and that it would cost €1 to have a pee.....

Re: Iberia offers flights to central London City Airport
did they say what aircraft they will be using? I'm assuming it will be an a319, after seeing their performance of a short approach at Arricife, I can imagine them turning finals at the Citigroup building... and thats short!

Re: Contrail spotting July 2009
hi,
was anyone out there on Thursday evening in the London area at approx 18:00hrs, a plain white dc8-63 cargo? going east to west . I did get a photo of it but it was far too hazy to see anything. I would just like to know who it belongs to as it reminded me of the defunct Cargo Lion, Any ideas?

Only slightly better is further south jus...
