Atlantic Antonovs

[we_never_change]

As well as the An72 Atlantic have on lease from Enimex (reg' ESNOI, boring colourscheme!), Atlantic have taken a Cityline Hungary An26 on lease, reg' HATCP.

Its currently operating AAG873/874 Aberdeen-Edinburgh-Coventry & AAG875/876 CVT-EDI-ABZ return.

I think this is only a short term lease till they can find one of their own Electras to operate the flight (currently all busy!)

Also, heard a rumour that Atlantic are looking at aquiring more ATRs for charter work. One of the ATR42s was at London City this morning crew-training in preperation for the forthcoming Leeds/Bradford to London City route (which is to be operated for BMI).

I believe the Hungarian example has been replaced by An26 ERAZR on Atlantics ABZ-EDI-CVT flight.

Should be more ATRs on the way, possibly 72s

The Electras and Antonovs are operate by Atlantic Airlines which is a seperate company these days following a management buy out. Have heard rumours they are looking at ATR-72s and ATPs for freight network.

The ATRs going into London City are operate by the original company, Air Atlantique/Highland Airways. Currently have 2 ATR-42s and third on the way.

The Antonov ER-AZR positioned through Coventry today at the end of its lease,returning home.

The flights are to be operated by Electras from Monday,on a joint DHL/Parcelforce basis.
