Now here is another question. Within a peak base of 9 aircraft; ‘BD’ is off to Tenerife today for the 10th successive day. Between the 20th July and the 8th August, if flew there 12 out of 19 times.
When there is a random chance of 1 in 9 afternoon destinations, most usually the lengthier sectors, why one aircraft on one route? Pretty much all are new build so in theory the same, all are back home by 2-3 am the next morning so one night’s arrival shouldn’t determine the next day’s plan.
The stats seem to suggest this isn’t random but I can’t think of a rational explanation?
G-JZBD is one of a few able to go down the T16/T13 Tango Routes to the canarys i believe which is why its assigned to TFS.
