Wasn't there a plan that all of the E145s would receive their heavy maintenance at Willis at Teesside? This would mean aircraft wouldn't have to be flown to Portugal or even the USA for C and D checks.
G-SAJD has sat at Teesside since February and work seemingly never started on it. When the aircraft go to OGMA in Portugal, they are often there for six months at a time. An expensive and time consuming business.
