Once again condolences to all at ORK, at least they were an airline offering more service rather than the less we are getting all too used to elsewhere. Perhaps an all-EMB135 fleet would have made more sense but obviously the 145s were a bargain post Swissair.
While others recall ATRs and RJs on ORK-LGW, I think it was a Dash 8 took me there in late 2000. The advantage of the dash being it could land straight in on the E-W runway at ORK.
It would be nice to think RE would do a deal with BA and re-instate LGW, especially as it would open opportunities to fly home cheap in the winter on Air Transat and Zoom to LGW! Let's face it if BRS and SOU can support a AT7, why can't south London?
