With almost 50% of the airline’s entire movements landing at LCY, I am quite surprised this airline had one of its aircraft end up in this position. It is not as if they are lacking in experience of short-field ops!
Seems like a load of rough pilots. Hard on A/C, therefore expensive. Makes me wonder how they treat their partners? Rough I expect, instead of gentle and with respect.
