Not much Christmas cheer
Not the happiest of days again
BHX will see 6 different aircraft today, possibly 5 on the ground at the same time in an hour but only had 3 out of 7 flights have operated - that takes some doing.
Two aircraft now on the ground 24 hours, a third came in empty from Newcastle after operating its first flight after a month in maintenance and to cap it all Heathrow - Amsterdam just landed BHX calling a PAN. I assume it came to BHX hoping to find a serviceable replacement which there should be one inbound from BHD in the next hour.
No idea of the mystery behind aircraft "OR" that positioned Exeter - Belfast yesterday afternoon operated one flight today BHD-NCL 22 hours later, failed to do the return and positioned to BHX. The return to BHD from NCL will be over 2 hours late as it seems to be going to be done on the LHR-NCL aircraft which is just landing.
They did mange 2 complete days in a row at BHX with no cancellations but not really much to celebrate in that. They don't seem to be getting a break with these various issues although most seem tech and only 2 clear days out of 5 at one of their operating airports is not good.
