G-OJEG needs a paint in my opinion:

Sorry unable to at the moment.
However l can say as pointed out in another post, fleet size looks like for next summer to be 38 or maybe a 39th as a standby aircraft.

Is that after the AB6 and 320 have left in W12? It was a nice try but im assuming that they are from the a32x family for commonality reasons.

That is after the A300 has left, the A320 might end up as the standby aircraft.
However nothing is set in stone yet, lots of if this or if that going on at the moment.

Ah right ok thank you for the insight! Its appreciated. Now i can understand the a320 being standby with quite a few a/c going tech at MAN recently as well as BHX.

Whats happening about the A300s leaving - replacement wise as they are very good workhorses for the SSH/PMI/TFS routes. Are they just being downgraded to a321s.

Is there any truth in a 734 leased in to operate new flights from EMA/LBA was it?

Yes it all starts next month and more than one.
Two more A321 going to have the extra fuel tank fitted, to enable the BHX-SSH flights.

G-OZBN has now had Fly Your Way, Every Day removed.

Think G-MONJ still has old titles but I havent seen a pic of it for about a month now.

G-OZBB, OZBE, OZBG, and OZBU i think sill need Fly Your Way, Every Day removed although im not sure about G-OZBP. All due to be done by the end of this month I have heard.

All aircraft now have the decals applied. G-MONJ was the last one:
G-MONJ Monarch Airlines Boeing 757-2T7 - Planespotters.net Just Aviation

G-OZBB, G-OZBW, G-OZBG & G-OZBP (I think) have yet to have the Fly Your Way, Every Day Removed.
