The reason why we are getting a new pushback tug, is coz when they expanded the western apron and built a 767 stand to handle the BY aircraft it was 26N which was a pushback stand, but at the time S'air didnt want to spend money on a tug n bar 4 one aircraft and make another stand 26S to park the 767 to taxi off. But since we need more pushback tugs as we only have 4 one for BAs and 3 for Ramp. We need another to push 757s,A321,767s etc. But i find it funny how now the campany has desided to get one for the 767 and a new bar. I think its better having the equipment for new airlines to look that BRS can handle such aircraft and that theres more money to be made on a 767 turnround then anyother aircraft. We should be recieving the new tug in a couple of weeks. We are getting new steps which is need 7 sets total, one set a week so we here, and couple more electrial flatbeds. But no GPU's or Elect tugs which we need too. S'air needs to sort its act or in a years time a new handling agent could take over which will prob happen anyway.
