Gatwick/Tail-strike
"CI" seems to be back in service now at BHX since 1/9/12 - I believe this was the tail-strike aircraft, so it was out for just over a week.
Gatwick
From the Aberdeen thread it is indicated that LGW-ABZ will cease after summer and aircraft placed on BHX-ABZ. LGW-ABZ is zeroed out already by the look of it and do we know if the 175 will be BHX based or remain in Aberdeen with timetable changes put in place?
I am not sure if it has been mentioned before or standard practice for winter but BHD-LGW is showing four daily for winter compared to the five daily in the week during summer.
The flight that has disappeared matches the schedule for the re-timed BHD-BHX BE405, which was a BHX based 175/195 and is now a BHD based 195.
BHX-INV also now showing in winter, as an Inverness based Q400 despite BHX's Q400's virtually doing nothing in the day other than the four a week WAT.
I did a rough calculation a week or two ago for the first week in November and it showed 62 aircraft required to operate the schedule with a fleet total of 65-68 depending on 175 deliveries and "CH" flying again but things seem to fluid to say the least.
