You would be right in saying that.
BA maintain the 67's and FLS the rest of the fleet: 57's DC10's A320/321/330's, the Monarch set up went a while ago.
The Airtours way though seems to be why pay somebody to maintain the aircraft when you can pay nothing and moan about what isn't being done.
The AIH Maintrollers were all offered jobs with FLS, and luckily for FLS they accepted as they couldn't recruit internally because everyone was aware of what a night mare job it is.
The Manchester Maintrol now looks after AIH and OYC (Premiair) aircraft, Approx 50+ aircraft.
AIH still have liasion engineers on the ramp at LGW/GLA/MAN.
No surprise in the rumour that anybody interested in buying FLS doesn't want to get involved in the Line Maintenance side.
Will AIH get their own line, only if it comes free with corn flakes tokens.
