The 767 will be passing through GLA this summer that is fact, i have seen the flying program, although it might only be for the six weeks of the school holidays which is earlier in scotland than england. Incidently during the summer holidays there are monarch flights passing through around 5 days of the week.
With regard to EDI, the flying program is totally dictated by direct holidays who are the main charterer, in line with the myt reductions they have altered their flying. The rumours are true about Monarch Scheduled looking at Scottish routes, i believe Mr Jeans has been at Edinburgh for meetings recently.
Finally only three of thirteen engineers are departing to TCX so its business as usual for the Monarch engineers in Scotland and we will be looking forward to seeing some old faces again this summer as it has been a few years since we where graced with MON boeing fleet crews, although not G-DIMB as we have had it based at Glasgow a fair bit over the last few years.
